MS. RACHEL VANNORSDEL
Hello!! Welcome to the Team 8: Lincoln's Legacy
Project WOW Webpage!! I
had a great time this semester learning so much about one of the United
States' greatest Presidents Abraham Lincoln! I am a senior
Elementary Education major with a concentration in Social
Science. Project WOW has been a great experience for me since it
has opened my eyes to new ways of teaching Social Studies. On my
free time, I love to hang out with my friends and family. I have
one sister, her name is Becky, a dog named Koda, and a REALLYfat cat
named Miracle! I also love to go shopping and be outside on a
nice day! After I graduate, I plan on teaching in the Chicago
area. I one day would like to go back to school to receive my
Master's Degree. Thanks again for visiting our website, I hope
you enjoy it!!
MS. CATHERINE NIGG
Hello! My name is Catherine Nigg. I am so glad I had a chance to
participate in WOW my senior year! I really enjoyed teaching about
Abraham Lincoln because many times Social Studies is the forgetten
subject. We had so much fun and I think we learned as much from the
students as they did from us. After student teaching I plan to move to
California and teach out there. I am really excited to move out there
because the scenery is so beautiful and you can go hiking everyday in
the mountains! I enjoy reading and going to the movies. I have two
brothers and one sister. I also have a neice and a nephew that I love
to hang out with. One day I hope to go back to school and receive my
masters. Again I really enjoyed my time participating in WOW and I hope
you enjoy the rest of our site!
