I am teaching in Chengdu, China on a teacher exchange program between Phoenix Country Day School and the Chengdu Experimental Foreign Languages School.
Here are some of the Senior 2 teachers I share an office with. My chair and desk are behind the date. In the top photo starting with the gentleman in the tie and moving clockwise the teachers are, Mr. Charlie Peng, Ms. Li, Ms. Liu, and Dr. Long. In the bottom picture from left to right are Stella Wu, Mr. Stone, Ms. Xu, Ms. Xia, Ms. Liu, and the ever-effervescent Christine

I teach 5th grade science and mathematics at Phoenix Country Day School in Paradise Valley, AZ. There is a link to my school below. I have a M.S. in Geology from Idaho State University and have worked as a mudlogger in Wyoming and as a surveyor for the United States Forest Service in Idaho. For the past 23 years I have taught in Idaho, Kuwait, Korea, Myanmar, and Phoenix. My hobbies are rock hounding, reading, and traveling. I enjoy taking my students mineral collecting on the weekend. Our most recent trip was to collect mica near Cleator, AZ. We found huge books of mica in a pegmatite. My wife Dell and I have four daughters and six grandchildren. My favorite vacation was to the Grand Canyon where I rafted the Colorado River from Lee’s Ferry to Diamond Creek. My favorite sport is football and my favorite food is Asian.

Dear Erin,
I had another teacher who lives across the hall from me sit down at the computer and help with the names. I have 180 students and after three weeks know five names. I am afraid I am still the same old dog.
Hi Sydnee,
I went to a dinosaur museum today, it is one of the three best in the world!
Mrs. Malone sent me a picture of our advisor group; it was nice to see you in the photo!
