Preparing for Takeoff...

It’s hard to believe that in only a few short hours I will be on a plane headed for Cape Dorset, Nunavut!  Before arriving in Cape Dorset, I will be spending the day/night in Iqaluit.  I am excited for what this adventure has in store for me.
I plan to blog on a daily basis which will include numerous photos of my journey north!  I would like to begin this blog by thanking the sponsors who have made this journey possible.  I would also like to thank my instructor for bringing this opportunity to the Mount.  I want to thank the community of Cape Dorset for welcoming me and providing me with a place to stay and a classroom in which I will learn to become a more effective teacher.  I would also like to thank my family for supporting me in my hopes and dreams.  Without these people, all that I am doing would not be possible!
This journey is a once in a life time opportunity.  I am being given the opportunity to grow both personally and professionally.  I am sad to leave my grade 2 classroom in Nova Scotia but I am ready to embrace all that my grade 5 classroom in Cape Dorset has to offer!
Please check back daily to stay updated on my journey to the north...
