Hi. My name is Lisa Taplin. Welcome to the website for my Second Grade classroom at St. Joseph's School. I believe that learning is a lifelong endeavor. I enjoy traveling, and learning new things. Here I am with my family, at the rim of a volcano in Nicaragua. It was still smoking!!
I received my Bachelor's Degree in Education from the College of St. Catherine and a Masters in Learning Technology from the University of St. Thomas. Besides attending sporting events, I enjoy travel, reading, and keeping up with my family. I've taken many trips to Europe, been around the beautiful U.S.A., and enjoyed Australia, New Zealand, Peru, Nicaragua, and Costa Rica. I tend to share stories of my travels with my students. During the past few summers I have attended Camp Read-a-Lot. At camp I read and evaluate dozens of new children's books.
