TEACHING EXPERIENCE

Hi! I'm Stacey and I've been teaching in public schools for ten years now. I have always taught Language Arts and I sometimes also teach Social Studies. I have experience teaching Grades 3-5 and I had one great year as a Kindergarten teacher.

MY TEACHING STYLE

I like to promote a calm, relaxing classroom environment. The environment is the third teacher and I believe we should all create spaces we love to be in - especially when we are in them so much!
