Experience

Welcome! If you’re looking for hands-on, fun activities for your little learners, you’re in the right place. Here you’ll find creative early literacy activities focused on storytime, name practice, teaching the ABC’s, beginning phonics, sight words, and more.

Teaching style

I believe learning should be more social than silent. I love to learn and try new things, and share my enthusiasm with my students. I'm the kind of teacher who loves to wear silly costumes and read aloud with different voices.

My own education history

My B.A. is in Psychology, and I earned 12 graduate credits in Education while attaining my teaching certificate.
