A Cotton Kandi Life

Hi there! I'm Kandice. I have a Master's in Behavior Management and a Special Education Endorsement. I taught Kindergarten and Special Education for 2 years before being laid back to a substitute teacher for 2 more years. I now teach my own 2 sons at home.

I rely on a modified Montessori style of teaching and learning. We heavily emphasize Discovery Learning on our home based classroom using the free movement structures: The Mess Mat {my sensory play area I've built my blog around}, our Creativity Corner and Literacy Corner. This spring we're adding a outdoor garden classroom where we're learning about plants and composting.

Only blogging awards... I did not get to be a teacher log enough to earn any there.

Master's Degree in Behavior Management- University of Oregon Bachelors Degree in Education- University of Oregon Special Education Endorsement- University of Oregon

I also own and run my own Wedding & Event Coordinating business which I have run as an interactive classroom {teaching weddings} for 7 years. I've always issued clients binder, homework, worksheets and hand many parent teacher conferences ;)
