TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I have 18 years teaching experience in grades 3-6 and as a special education resource teacher. This year, I am an RTI teacher, working with students in 1st and 6th grade. Talk about a range of skills and needs! I believe that when we work together and share the workload, we are more effective and our students can maximize their learning.

MY TEACHING STYLE

My teaching style is fluid. It changes with the needs of my students. I incorporate movement and technology whenever possible.

HONORS/AWARDS/SHINING TEACHER MOMENT

Recipient of multiple grants for my classroom and school. Being called "mom" and "grandma" by my students. ;-)
