Jen is currently teaching Title One teacher (reading and math) and literacy coach. Previously she was a district K-8 Literacy Teaching and Learning Facilitator (which is fancy for district reading coach). Before that, she taught 4th and 5th grade elementary and 6th, 7th and 8th grade middle school science.
In teaching science I used a balanced approach. We would do a little bit of experiments, a little bit of writing, reading, along with many hands on activities. In my elementary classroom we use the workshop method for everything! I love my guided math, reading and writing groups!

We met when we happened to be on a middle school team together- he taught social studies, she taught science. Together we have three kids. The oldest is 9 and loving elementary school. The middle is 7 and learning the basics of reading.The youngest is almost 1 and just learning to walk. Together we have a passion for learning and love anything that involves education (we've been to a million zoos, aquariums, etc.)!
