About the store
I have been teaching since 1996. When I first started teaching, I taught 6th grade and all subjects. After 13 years in 6th, I moved to 7th and taught Math and American History. That was for 6 years. For the past 10 years I have taught 6th grade math. In year 30, I am the Math Problem Solving/STEM teacher for grades K-8. I get to work with all students doing creative activities and projects.
I have always wanted to be a teacher. When I was little, I used to play "school" all the time. I would make up tests and write on the little chalkboard my parents bought me. I used to get excited when my teachers gave away their old teacher editions. They would become my books when I played "school".

Decimal Project- Design Your Own Menu and Restaurant Project
I used this project with my 6th grade math classes as a review and practice of decimal operations and enrichment of percent applications (Sales Tax and Tip and taught in 7th grade), but the concept of how to find it is taught in 6th (finding the percentage/part). My students loved it! I had them work with a partner, but this could absolutely be done independently. They loved that they were able to create their own themed restaurant and a menu for it. The students then used their menus for the ta

Holiday Activities for Busy Teachers
About this Product
“It’s the most wonderful time of the year!”…. Is it??? As a teacher this statement is debatable. Of course, we all love the holiday season, when we are trying not to get in those last few things in before winter break. We sure know the students love this time of year! They get so excited and boy do they let it show!! Sometimes we just need to give them (and us) a little break from the everyday learning for something fun. This product is designed to do that.

It makes for a fun "fall day" activity. I did this with my students and they loved it. Even older students like to color now and then. **********************************************************

They will then create a poster, using the instructions on the guideline provided. The students like doing this project I e

Europe Social Studies Project- Top Ten List
This project is a fun way to get the students to learn about the culture and geography of some of the countries in Europe. I like to consider it a "twist" on creating a travel brochure. Instead the students research and create a "Top Ten List" on why people should visit their particular country. I created and used this project when I taught 6th grade and the students loved it!

Teaching style
I believe that you are born to be a teacher. It is not a job that anyone or everyone can do, despite what people think. It takes a certain person to give a large portion of their time to helping other people's children and shape them into able-bodied young adults. You have to be patient, understanding, kind, yet firm, and creative. You have to be willing to try new things because all children do not learn the same and every class you teach is not the same as the previous one. So teachers need to be able to adapt and most importantly, think on their feet. I find sometimes my best lessons or activities are those that I thought up instantaneously.
