TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I am the author of "Our Class is a Family" and both "A Letter From Your Teacher" books (for the first day and last day of school). They are read alouds to help build class community and positive relationships in the classroom. I've taught 2nd grade for 15 years and am passionate about creating engaging, hands-on resources for the classroom. I especially enjoy making extensions activities to go with my books, math & literacy center games, and resources that integrate writing.
