TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I am a fourth grade teacher. I have 4 years experience with 4th graders and love this age group! As you will find, most of my products have the Common Core skills and standards incorporated within to better meet the needs of you and your students. My school has fully implemented the ELA standards and I am currently developing units to better cycle these skills throughout the year.
