My name is Judith Rodriguez I currently work at a charter school in Korea town as a middle school history teacher. At our school we have a rotating curriculum so this year we are teaching Ancient Civ. to 6th & 7th graders for the second semester.

I was born in Mexico and have lived in California almost all my life. I am a product of LAUSD (Thomas Jefferson High School). Just recently I picked up scrapbooking as a hobby for the second time. I also like to read (just wish I had more time to dedicate to it). I love to travel, so far I have been to a couple of countries in Europe and a few states in Mexico.

I look forward to learning more about Asia so when I do get the opportunity to go I will enjoy it more for it's cultural and historical value vs. just plain boring tourism.[Edit by="jrodriguez on Feb 27, 3:40:10 PM"][/Edit]

Hello my name is Lisa Monie-Peralta.
I teach 7th grade English Language arts at Griffith Middle School in LASUD.
Just a little bit more. I recently got married and I love scrapbooking. I also love to travel and have been to a few places in France and Britain. I love Literature and am often disappointed in myself that I don't read as much as I used to.

The two interest that I have are traveling and collecting music. World music covers so much, but Reggae is the largest selection.

Mr. Baker,
when did you visit Cambodia? I have heard a lot of good things about Angkor. How was it from your perspective and where did you go to get the info?
