My Introduction


**Click on Read More at the bottom of this page to view more of my blog and LIBS assignments.

Hello My name is Leigh Isley! I live in the most southern part of Virginia. We are about 30 minutes from the North Carolina border. I live in a very rural community with my husband and my little Yorkie "Chester."  I am currently a 2nd grade teacher but was recently told I would be moving down a couple of grades to Kindergarten. I'm not exactly sure how I feel about it, but sometimes change is necessary. I am excited to work with the little ones and hopefully I can get a better feel on how the younger generation thinks about the library and librarian. I can't wait to finally finish my Master's Degree with ODU and hopefully get to move into my own library one day!  

Oh I forgot to add that I'm a HUGE Mickey Mouse fan :)




I liked using Tagxedo better than Wordle. I found Tagexdo more user friendly than Wordle. Tagexdo.com all you have to do is just click on Create at the top and then load on the left hand side. Clicking on load allows you to key in any words that characterize you. There are many different shapes to pick from also. I chose a cat to show my animal lover side. Tagexdo would also be great using student vocabulary words or keywords from a certain story or book.
