Hi, I am Mrs Cave.

I am, uh, teach a teacher here at Central High

School, and I teach Spanish one.

Um, and I wanted to take a few minutes.

Teoh have an opportunity for you guys to get to

know me.

And for me, hopefully, at the end of this lesson

to get to know you, the only thing that I

want us to focus on this week is for us

to feel like we can navigate all the things that

I'm gonna be throwing at you.

And so when you feel like you're don't understand something,

I want you to know that I'm a real person,

not a robot.

Just pushing activities up to you, but somebody who has

designed lessons specifically for you.

Um, so if you need something or if you feel

like I'm going too fast or you don't understand something,

please please, please reach out to me.

So I felt like it would be best is if

I gave an opportunity for you guys to get to

know me a little bit better.

And so I'm gonna give you a quick lesson and

quick you about who I am, and then we're gonna

use this crazy thing called the your pod for you

to inter questions about me or maybe ask questions about

me. Um, and throughout the lesson, and this is something

that we're going to using all the time.

So I wanted to give us something on opportunity toe

practice, using it without it being a really great.

But just relax, get to know you type thing, um,

a little bit about me.

Central. There is a speed is to teacher in a

Spanish three.

Teacher. What do you guys will get to go?

No. Maybe next.

Mestre, our next year.

Um and, uh, I also teach English as a second

language, but not here at Central.

Taught that in my past.

Um, and it's something that really love because I love

helping people learn how to speak a new language.

Um, and I think really, when you come here to

this country for the first time, having English is so

important. Just like I think having Spanish is super important

because somebody of our neighbors speak spanish.

Um, so this is my eighth year at Central.

I taught here for six years.

And then I left for four to teach in Harrisburg

High School.

And then I went down to South Central Virginia and

I talked down there.

Um and then, um, I got really smart and I

said, I want to go back to the mountains.

I'm gonna go back to the community that I love,

which is Woodstock.

And we moved back here and now of this my

second year back.

So eight years total at Central.

If you have older siblings, maybe I have, um but

I just love it here, and I love being a

falcon. So I am a Virginia native.

I grew up here.

Um, I grew up in Fredericksburg, Virginia, so closer to

D. C.

Um, I lived there from the time that I was

born until I went to JMU.

Um, I went to Jamie, go to study Spanish and

education, And then I say there to get my master's

in education in English language learners, education.

And then, um now, we've, uh, lived lots of different

places, actually, but now we've just settled down and new

market. So I love super super close, Teoh, the southern

end of the campus of our schools.

But I love Jamie.

You If you have any interest in going to jam

you in the future, you can always come talk to

me. And, um, we'll tell you everything that now all

right, My family, I feel like super important to me.

Um, so Jake is my husband.

Ah, He is a math teacher down in Rockingham County

and he's also an Air Force chaplain on.

And then I have my son, McCulley, who is seven.

He's the one that's in the middle there.

Um, but I am Mike Ray who?

He's someone that I'm holding.

He's four and then our baby McCain, who is currently

a year and a half.

Um and they are so much fun.

But they are a time of work because they're just

lots of energy.

My middle son not my middle son, but my oldest

son, who's there in the middle.

He loves Minecraft.

I don't know if any of you guys like Minecraft.

My four year old loves Toy Story, particularly Buzz your

Lightyear and Woody and four Key from the fourth one,

and also loves Incredibles.

And then my baby just loves anything that, you know,

is something that you put this about So some things

about me I really love being outside my husband and

I. This weekend we went to West Virginia and we

went biking for the weekend on, and it was a

lot of fun.

So we don't do anything super intense, but we love

being out in the woods and breaking for several hours

and then, um, just enjoying each other's company outside.

So I love being outside hiking, biking, those type of

things. And lastly, um, LaForce migrating.

It's something that I got to do a lot more

when I was younger than I moved back here.

And, um, I get to do it again.

We don't have a horse, but we I take some

lessons and, um, it's fun and exciting.

A particular Like I said, I love being outside, um,

in the woods.

And so we do a lot of trail riding up

Import Valley or about massive Dutton.

So, uh, that is my horse.

That was, uh, that I had one summer when I

was living in Colorado, um, as, ah, working at a

re inch.

And his name was Navajo anyways.

And my last thing is that I love to travel,

but I'm a Spanish teacher.

So last summer I got to visit my best friend

and speed, Um, bearing am overlooking Barcelona.

Um and, um I, uh, any chance that I can

get to be able to travel trying to travel, You

know, we like to stay in people's homes or in

hostels. So right now it's on a very good time

to travel, but anywhere that Spanish speaking or have been

to other countries, like I stayed in South Africa over

a summer.

Um, and I've been to Israel, Um, so just any

time that I get get a chance to go and

travel. But I don't like to just go see, you

know, the sights and the sounds that are, like super

popular. But I like to be, um, hanging out with

the people at the locals.
