About the store
I began teaching in March 2010 as a long-term substitute for a first grade teacher who was out on maternity leave. I guess I made the cut, because I've been at the same school ever since! My first full year teaching was 2010-11 in Kindergarten. This year I am back in first grade and loving it!

Experience

I began teaching in March 2010 as a long-term substitute for a first grade teacher who was out on maternity leave. I guess I made the cut, because I've been at the same school ever since! My first full year teaching was 2010-11 in Kindergarten. This year I am back in first grade and loving it!

Teaching style

I LOVE small groups. I try not to stand in front of my kids for more than like 20 minutes at a time. My kids love their literacy centers and math workshop time!

Additional biographical information

When I'm not teaching or working at home, I love to hang out with my hubby and my sweet dog! We LOVE to watch movies and take long walks. I always, always, always have a novel I'm reading. I love light fluffy chick lit!
