TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I started out my teaching career as a part-time Technology Specialist and part-time middle school (grades 6-8) computer teacher. I taught Early Kindergarten for several years before moving into my current 1st grade teaching position. First graders are the BEST!

MY TEACHING STYLE

Hands-on, of course! I love to get my students up and moving around the room. I try to incorporate lots of center and collaboration type activities that hold their attention and interest level while challenging them at the same time.
