About My Photo Illustration

My profile image was created by one of my 5th grade students using Corel Draw. (Yeah, my smile is really that big when I'm teaching!) The image was created as part of a SOL Buddy Trading Card project to help 5th grade students prepare for the Virginia Standards of Learning (SOL) History and Social Science Test. To note famous Virginians, my head was actually partnered with Arthur Ashe's body on a SOL trading card. Oh, how I wish Arthur's tennis skills could transfer over somehow. *smile*
