Introductions

In our first week for this class, we interviewed and introduced fellow students. Here is my introduction, as presented by Jake Sherman:


Karen is in her 5th year of teaching, and is starting her 3rd year teaching PreAlgebra, PreCalculus, and Honors Calculus at a cyber school in Enola. Enola is a relatively small town and suburb of Harrisburg Pennsylvania. The school Karen is teaching at has students from all over the state of Pennsylvania. The enrollment is about 2,900 students for grades K-12.
Karen is kept busy with her "kids" a dog, rabbit, 3 guinea pigs, 2 birds, a turtle, a fish tank, and 2 horses. She spends a lot of time with her horses Manny a 19 year old Quarter Horse and Ezzy a 9 year old Morgan Horse. Karen does small gaming (barrel racing, pole bending, et.) with Ezzy. In addition to horseback riding and caring for her animals Karen enjoys reading and some computer games.
When asked if she was a Steelers fan and Pirates fan Karen said that she cheers for the Steelers and the Phillies, and because the town she lives in is centrally located in the state it is ok to cheer for one team from each city.
Also given the choice of chocolate, vanilla, swirl or strawberry Karen would choose swirl or strawberry.
