1. Who do you plan to interview? Why?
Early next week, I plan to interview Mary Peterson, an educator at Lark Ellen Elementary School. In previous years, Ms. Peterson was captivated by the art in fashion and had been working in the business. Today she spends her days teaching and working with elementary school children, but applies the creativity derived from fashion to teaching. I choose to interview Mary Peterson because I believe that since she has taught both third and fifth grades levels, with the influence of an art, it could help me decide on which grade level I would like to teach.
