Meet Mr. Peoples

Hello everyone,

I am excited to meet all of you this fall.  It should be an exciting year for all of you.  You will meet many new friends.  I would like to tell you a little bit about myself and what I have been doing all summer. 

This is my 6th year teaching at CMSW and my 2nd year teaching 6th grade.  I used to teach reading at CMSE and CMSW.  I now teach Social Studies and Language Arts. 

I enjoy all kinds of sports but I have to say that my favorite is Baseball.  I play softball in the summer and try to catch as many Twins games as I can.  I also enjoy all kinds of music.  I even play in a band.  I play the piano, the harmonica, and the guitar.

The last thing I would like to share with you is that I love History!  I like traveling to historic places and seeing historic things.  I like to read books that talk about history and I love to share history with my students.  This summer I traveled to Washington D.C., New York City, Denver, Utah, Pennyslanvia and Virginia.  I toured some Civil War battlegrounds out east as well.  Here is a list of Battlefields I toured:

• Manassas (Bull Run)

• Fredricksburg

• Chancellorsville

• Gettysburg

• Antietam (Sharpsburg)

• Harpers Ferry

• Appomattox

• Lexington, VA (Lee is buried here)

Here are some pictures of my travels this summer:
