Hi, I'm Mrs. McCasland

I am the 8th grade English teacher at Norwood Norfolk Middle School. I have been teaching there since September of 2002. Before that, I spent 6 years teaching high school English in Houston, TX. It was too hot for me in Texas, so I came home to NY as soon as I could. 

I don't have any children... unless you count my 5 cats and 2 dogs. My cats are: Opus, Charlie, Cassie, Billy & Lucy (all mixed breeds). My dogs are: Ray
(timberwolf/husky mix) & Steve (black&white husky).

I love cooking, all kinds of movies, gardening, Harry Potter, Tigger and popcorn.

This is what I've been reading:

1776 by David McCullough

Love, Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli

Fell, The Telling Pool, and The Alchemists of Barbal by David Clement-Davies

Hundred Secret Senses & Bonesetter's Daughter by Amy Tan

The Absolutely True Diary of a Part Time Indian by Sherman Alexie

Don't You Know There's a War on by Avi

5 People you Meet in Heaven, Tuesdays with Morrie, and For One More Day by Mitch Albom

Double Whammy by Carl Hiaasen
