TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I taught fourth grade for 12 years. In addition to teaching fourth grade I headed up a newspaper club, created a monthly estimation station for elementary students K-5, and took on a lot of graphics design/decorating duties at my elementary school. Now I am a stay at home mom designing resources for my own children to help them succeed with their schooling.

MY TEACHING STYLE

I love to have fun when I go into work and I know that students learn best when they are actively engaged in fun activities.
