5 THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT….. MS. VITACCO

I LOVE READING!

I have been an avid reader since I was 5. When I was younger, my mother and I would walk to our local library every Saturday. How many of you own library cards? I do! I am always looking for new titles to read…PLEASE share with me! I have read Harry Potter (I met JK Rowling…that’s a story for ano ther day!) and I love Rick Riordan.

I AM THE YOUNGEST OUT OF 8.

I have a very large extended family! I have 5 brothers, 2 sisters, 15 nieces and nephews, and 4 great-nephews/nieces! The boys you see on my desk are my nephews Matt, Tim and Kevin. We LOVE to crab! The twin girls you see belong to Madame Thompson…I am Jordan’s godmother!

I AM AN ANIMAL LOVER.

Although I grew up with dogs, I now have cats in my house, mostly named after Greek or Roman goddesses. Because I grew up with dogs, my cats think they are dogs. They sit and roll over on command, and play fetch. I can’t help it…it’s what I know! Please share pictures with me of your pets!

I LOVE COFFEE & CHOCOLATE!

I think coffee is the best invention in the world. I am not fancy; at Starbucks, I order the “Blonde” roast. I do enjoy cappuccinos and lattes.

The 2nd best invention? Chocolate, of course. I love Hershey bars, Snickers, Milky Way, Twix, Rolo’s, M&M’s, etc. I will pretty much eat anything chocolate-covered; the only thing that I stay away from is coconut (yuck!).

Try to remember this on my birthday (January 19) and at Halloween!

I HAVE BEEN ON ADVENTURES! 4 summers ago, I climbed Half-Dome

in Yosemite State Park. It took me 14 hours but I made it to the tippy top! Last year, I competed in the Tough Mudder. That took me over 6 hours, and I was very sore for many weeks! This past summer, I completed the Tribal Challenge with my TMS friends! I am the track coach here at Tamanend…(14 years) so please tell me if you think you may run, jump or throw for me!

WHAT SHOULD I KNOW ABOUT YOU?

Your Task:Prepare a similar list of things about

you to share with the class on Monday.

Create a slide show (using PowerPoint).

Try to be creative and original so that we really learn a bit about you and your personality.

Only include things that you want everyone to know (nothing too embarrassing or personal, please).
