About the store
I have taught first grade for 34 wonderful years! Creating educational materials has been so much fun and I'm thrilled to be able to share them with other teachers here on TPT!! I specialize in resources to use in a k-2 classroom. My store has MANY differentiated comprehension question sets to use with a wide variety of children's picture books and I have created writing lessons for beginning writers that can be purchased individually, in bundles or as a complete program. My store has a wide variety of other resources for the k-2 teacher!! I hope my products will provide teachers with useful resources for their classrooms!

Teaching style
I want my students be excited to learn new things and to be proud of their accomplishments! My classroom is a busy, busy place! My students are encouraged to take risks and to make mistakes! When a student makes a mistake and learns something new, I always say "WOW, we just watched you get smarter!" I hope they will always feel safe enough to take risks and learn something new!
Awards & shining teacher moments
I am most proud of the relationships I've built with my students! Many of these students have grown up and are now sending their children to my classroom. It is such a delight!
