About Me

As the grammatically inaccurate panda from Eats, Shoots, and Leaves for Halloween

Katie is beginning her first year of teaching fifth grade after eight years of teaching language arts, social studies, and drama to enthusiastic third (and in previous years fourth) grade students and two years of teaching not-always-enthusiastic seventh graders. She is a life-long reader and enjoys ensnaring others in the web of life-long reading. As a traveler, photographer, and former archaeologist, she has visited four five continents (honeymoon in Morocco!), numerous countries, and 41 of the 50 US States. She loves introducing her students to the wider world and fostering their excitement about other countries and cultures.


Logonaut was a word invented by Katie and three of her pre-service teacher colleagues while creating a unit on vocabulary-building and word roots. It has as its roots logo (Greek for word) and naut (Greek for ship or nautae, Latin for sailor): word sailor. In our estimation then, a logonaut is someone who sails on the sea of words and shares an appreciation and love of the power of words and language.
