Hey! Yes- it's Denise from Conley Hills. I am at Ocee now, though. I don't think I have seen Kindergarten Squared items... I will have to look you up!
I was wondering if you were back here since it says Palmetto, GA on your store. Have you been doing this long? It looks like it... You have some cool things.:). Ive been selling since April but I don't blog (yet) and I think that is vital to success. I just don't know how to yet. Are you teaching in Fulton? Well, good luck to you and your other half if "K2". I was going to message you on fb but then I saw you wrote more. I don't know if you will know I wrote more... I came about yours by chance.

Devon Barton (TpT Seller) re: Christopher Columbus Literacy Centers and Activities
I just purchased your columbus unit and when I downloaded it I only got the preview packet which only included 12 slides. It stated in your product overview that there would be 100. Could you help me with this please? Thanks!
September 27, 2012
Denise Scaccia (TpT Seller)
I am uploading it now. I am so sorry for your inconvenience. I don't know how I could have made such a bad mistake. Please email me your email address and a choice if something else in my store and I will wail it to you for free. The only catch is that it has to be less than 20 MB.

Fun Classroom Creations (TpT Seller) re: Cupcake Compound Words... A Literacy Center/Activity
I like your Cupcake Compound Words activity. I'd like to add it to add it to my blog madebyteachers.com/go/blog/time-savers and link to your store. Would that be ok?

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
I have nineteen years of experience at four different schools. Currently I work at a school in Johns Creek, GA, which is a Fulton County School.
MY TEACHING STYLE
My heart is in kindergarten and I try to make learning as fun as I can. I believe there is a place for worksheets, but I don't believe all learners do best with them so I try to use a variety of activities instead. I believe in differentiation, but I also believe that it is a tremendous amount of work. After having four different leveled groups in language arts this year, I find myself always looking for ways to make differentiaion easier. Therefore, I have tried to make several things that incorporate choices in my center activities so that buyers will be able to make one set of materials and just use different recording sheets.
HONORS/AWARDS/SHINING TEACHER MOMENT
I'm kind of like the bridesmaid who stands up in everyone's wedding... the one who's still single... I've been nominated for Teacher of the Year several times, have been a finalist several times, but I have not been crowned the title yet. Maybe someday... It doesn't really matter to me, though, I am going to do my best for the children no matter what. However that front row parking spot would nice!
MY OWN EDUCATIONAL HISTORY
I have a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education from Southern Illinois University, and a Master's Degree in Curriculum and Instruction from Central Michigan University. The latter I received from a satelite program here in Georgia.
ADDITIONAL BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION
I spend most of my free time doing school stuff. Other activities I might do are go shoe shopping, watch TV, or go to the movies. When there are occasions to do so, I make and decorate cakes.
