Etta Zasloff

Etta Zasloff is retired from 44 years of teaching and counseling and continues her interest in public education and children. This book has its origins in the Kindergarten class of her first teaching assignment, over 40 years ago, and has morphed into a retirement project that reconnects her to former students and colleagues, intrigues her own children and enchants her grandchildren. She has taught all elementary grades plus grade 7 and was an Elementary and Middle School Counselor for 18 years in WV before relocating to RI, where she taught Middle School English and Social Studies. She holds a Bachelor Degree in Elementary Education and a Master Degree in School Counseling from West Virginia University, Technology Educational Leadership Certification from Salem Teikyo University, and Middle School Certification from Rhode Island College. She also writes about a purposeful retirement, digital literacy for all ages, and life in general. She lives in rural Rhode Island, where her children who live in Boston, can easily visit with her grandchildren. Etta enjoys entertaining family and friends, the arts, outdoor sports, and volunteering in the community.
