QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS:
karen finley (TpT Seller) re: Tolkien's The Hobbit Chapter & Novel Tests & Quizzes
Why does this only go to Chapter 11? There are 19 chapters in the book?
October 26, 2012
cruzcyberclass (TpT Seller)
Most of the novel is broken up into section quizzes, about 5 chapters at a time. Only Chapter 11 has an individual quiz; I use that as an independant reading quiz. Then, there's the final novel test encompassing the whole novel. There is no separate quiz for the later chapters, but info from those chapters are included in the Final Novel Test.

krkeve re: Tolkien's The Hobbit Chapter & Novel Tests & Quizzes
The download shows multiple chapters grouped together for tests. Does this file include tests for each individual chapter? Thanks!

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
I've been teaching at my current position as a Language Arts & Journalism teacher of the gifted middle school students for 15 years. Prior to this post, I taught at a private elementary school, as a substitute at all subjects and grades for 5 years, and spent one year abroad in China teaching E.S.O.L.
MY TEACHING STYLE
I'd characterize my teaching style as taking on an interactive approach to teaching literature and language arts skills. My class involves many projects, presentations, discussions, and literary as well as life lessons.
HONORS/AWARDS/SHINING TEACHER MOMENT
I was nominated and elected as Teacher of the Year for my school in 2004-2005. That year, I was also selected as a Region Finalist for Teacher of the Year in Miami-Dade, FL (the 4th largest school district in the US). I achieved National Board Professional Teaching Certification in 2007 for Early Adolescent Language Arts. My students have achieved numerous local and state awards for their writing.
MY OWN EDUCATIONAL HISTORY
B.A. in English from Florida International University in 1994 M.S. in Educational Technology from Barry University in 2000 Gifted Certification in 2005 NBPTS Certification in 2007
ADDITIONAL BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION
Married to my school's Media Specialist, Albina Cruz. We have two kids of our own, beyond the hundreds we have taught.
