This is my 18th year in education. I taught one year in 3rd grade, four years in 5th grade, and 10 years in second grade. I was a K-5 Reading Interventionist for 2 years, and now, I'm the school librarian, so I teach all the students pre-K through 5th grade! I taught in a rural district my first year, a suburban district for 9 years, and currently teach in a diverse urban district in a school where over half the population is ESOL. I've had a lot of different teaching experiences.
I prefer for my classroom to be a calm learning environment. I prefer engaging and rigorous activities. I think collaboration and building relationships is key. Now that I'm in the library, organization is super important to me, to help my clientele find exactly what they need. I have worked hard this year to make the library kid-friendly in the way it is organized and advertised. It is my goal to connect kids with literature for enjoyment and to show them that there is something for everyone in the library.
Yet to be added
I have earned my Associate's, Bachelor's, and Master's degrees.
I provide activities, printable support, and book supplements for primary teachers. The majority of my resources have been classroom tested. Please message me with any questions or concerns.
