About the store
I've been a teacher for 9 years and absolutely love it! I taught at a high risk Title 1 school for 4 years giving me experience with both ESL students and struggling students. Since then I've been at one of the top performing elementary schools in my state giving me experience with gifted students and "high flyers." Teaching the full range of learners has shown me that all kids need the same thing - love from a teacher who focuses on them as an individual! My resources are designed to help you do that!!
