Hello! My name is Julie Butler, feel free to call me Julie or JB. I was born and raised in Lyndhurst, Ohio. My primary email address is jbutler143@yahoo.com. I am fortunate to teach in the district where I attended school from kindergarten to 12th grade! I teach 8th grade social studies, both regular education and advanced classes. I attended THE Ohio State University for my undergraduate in Integrated Social Studies. After OSU, I attended John Carroll University for my first masters in education and am currently work toward my second masters in educational administration. I am into music, especially Dave Matthews Band (I have attended upwards of 40 concerts all over the country) and playing with my dog Charli.
I always feel comfortable in classrooms! I am very outspoken and do not have any problems with taking intellectual and creative risks in the classroom. I consider myself a good student simply because I am an overachiever. I am always involved in active oral class participation and in addition to being a responsible, prepared and very timely. I am aware that my learning style is a acombination of both auditory and visual styles. If I could not understand a concept I would speak to my classmates as well as the professor. In my life situation, my mom died in November after being diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in September. This is a difficult time however I will strive to for success in the class.
My best experience as a student was with Mrs. Joan Kelly. I learned so much from her including many lessons to live a successful life. She is the reason I entered the profession, only to hope to be half the teacher she was.
I believe in order to make this the greatest class ever, we should concentrate on activities, study content topics and compelling questions, interact with each other. I believe that research papers will take away from the books we are reading and I do not learn well that way. In addition, during the educational administrative masters pursuit we have written countless papers on various things in education. I believe it is important to stay in the here and now, rather than researching something. I believe the authors of our two books do exactely that, and I believe will teach me more than dated research.
