TEACHING EXPERIENCE

Hi, & welcome to my store. I previously ran The Classroom Flyer (a popular daily teacher's newsletter), & Everyday Teaching, a similar resource but with website resources, & have worked for The Learning Co, Broderbund, Riverdeep, Mattel Education, & others. My classroom experience started out in the primary grades, &then I taught high school ELA. My main interest here is in developing & promoting Language Arts & literacy resources with engaging, creative, & instructive projects for all grade levels. I also truly enjoy developing light-hearted & appealing Reader's Theater & performance scripts.

MY TEACHING STYLE

I want the kids to be as dedicated to & as excited about learning as I am. Whether working independently on individual projects or within a more structured learning environment, I'm determined to make it a winning experience for each individual.

HONORS/AWARDS/SHINING TEACHER MOMENT

Favorite teacher awards, of which I'm very proud!

MY OWN EDUCATIONAL HISTORY

Double major, English & Psychology; grad educational psychology. Returned to school (much later!) for studio art degree.

ADDITIONAL BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION

Mother of four amazing children, our family of 6 lives, works & plays in sunny SoCal.
