Janique Caseley grew up in a small town called Truro and left at age 18 for university. She completed an undergraduate degree in sciences, intending to become first a marine biologist, then a school psychologist. I started my BEd to continue the school psychology path but fell in love with teaching my first day of what we call practicum, which is going into a classroom and watching how everything functions. She finished her BEd in 1997 and has been teaching ever since. Along the way, she got married, had two children, and has moved homes twice. She currently teaches grade six, volunteers at the local animal shelter, and attempts to keep a house with four busy people in it clean and functional.
The book we mentioned that she uses to form classroom community: The Lost Teachings by Michael James Isaac
