About Me
- Sallianne Crawford
- Hey friends! My name is Sallianne Crawford and I love lOvE LOVE kids!Even more so, however, I love thinking (and acting!)like a kid. Someday, I hope to dig in the dirt, sing silly songs, and finger paint right alongside of my future students as we discover the world together. That being said, I am currently in my junior year of college, pursuing an undergraduate degree at Shippensburg University as an Early Childhood Education major (Pre-K to 4). I am so excited to start teaching and am even more excited to find and share new ideas for my future classroom! In my spare time I enjoy cosying up to a good book, honing my baking skills, eating the products of my baking, running to combat the baking, doing crafts of all kinds, and spending time with my family and friends. I also have a strong addiction to peanut butter and an unhealthy fear of stinkbugs.
