About Me

I'm Isha Toney. My mom has been teaching 33 years. It was her that attracted me to the field. Every time we are in Walmart or off somewhere, a past student will run up to her and it's funny to see her try to remember their name because it has been so long. I'm sure she enjoys the attention. I have always had a desire to be a coach so I knew I had to get into the school system to do so. My ideal grade would be kindergarten because I would love all the hugs but working with older students is ultimately my goal. I am excited to be working somewhere around English (will do grad I'm sure) and Language Arts. Social Studies has really become a possibility, it caught my attention. On a more personal note I am a mother of two. Edgerrin Rashad is 5 and E'Miyah Rae is 3. They are indeed the loves of my life. School has always been in my sights but I did indeed stray. I am proud to be back and I don't see another vacation anytime soon. I am very excited about this class!!! I think it will help me to focus more on my students as individuals as it teaches me how to teach them. It will help me broaden my view on reaching them through different avenues for creativity. Something that stood out on the syllabus was indeed this blogging component. I have never been a fan of blogs and I definitely didn't think I would have my own. But anything, and I do mean anything, for good standings!! I definitely want to take advantage of learning as much as possible about making students individuals. I am so nervous about the other college and what type of interaction that will be..! That would be my only concern and I am curious as to whether they will even get to read THIS!!!!
