About the store
I have been teaching for 19 years. My career began as a maternity leave substitute in 1st grade, then moved me to 3rd grade for 2 years. When I switched schools I was placed in 2nd grade. In the past 17 years I have spent 15 of them in 2nd grade, 1 in 3rd and 1 in first. I believe my experience in 1st and 3rd have helped to mold me as the best 2nd grade teacher I can be. I have a computer literacy endorsement on my license and some Special Ed training.

Teacher Toolbox/Toolkit Labels

This FREEBIE is for a set of labels for the amazing Teacher toolboxes that so many of us have in our classrooms. These are fairly neutral because they are so small, but are still cute and colorful. There is a page of blank squares in case one of mine doesn't work for you. You can snip that page into powerpoint or a document of your choice and add your own label. The font I used is called Inside Out and was downloaded separately. The labels were created in Canva! Check out @wishuponawendell

This pack is a great supplement to any 3rd-6th grade classroom that could use some additional multiplication math fact practice. The suggested use would be for Early Finishers, as a warm up, or as a center activity. Since March Madness happens in the spring, the content of this activity is focused on multiplication x5 to x10. It is intended for students to be able to work on completely independently and should not need a lot of teacher support. This frees you up to be helping other students

Social Studies seems to be hard to squeeze in at times... but also, our students are coming to us with less experience at times and need to build this knowledge about the world around them! This unit is a 5 week unit that covers the History standards involving communities for 2nd grade. In the 2023 edition of the Indiana State Standards, these are 2.H.1-2.H.5. Many other states cover these same standards though. See the unit plan below for exactly what is covered. This unit is meant to be

My class absolutely loved making themselves into

Experience

I have been teaching for 19 years. My career began as a maternity leave substitute in 1st grade, then moved me to 3rd grade for 2 years. When I switched schools I was placed in 2nd grade. In the past 17 years I have spent 15 of them in 2nd grade, 1 in 3rd and 1 in first. I believe my experience in 1st and 3rd have helped to mold me as the best 2nd grade teacher I can be. I have a computer literacy endorsement on my license and some Special Ed training.

Teaching style

I can't get enough of new research and old style. I love my students unconditionally and think of them as part pf my family. I love using technology and new ideas. I will try anything at least once. My classroom is a structured home to many free choice activities, lots of cooperative learning, and usually lots of fun. I believe in Intentional activities and the 6 standards of Effective Pedagogy. This means that I believe in student voice/student choice, as well as collaborative work and helping kids understand that they CAN make a difference in our world.

Awards & shining teacher moments

Lots of hugs, smiles and high fives from former students AND parents is all I really need to know that I am doing something right in my classroom! 2020 Teacher of the Year for my building! WOWZERS! What an honor!
