Experience

Howdy! This year I will be finishing up my fourth year as a special education teacher. I am a Life Skills or Skills for Living and Learning teacher for 1st-5th grade self-contained. I'm always spending numerous hours adapting curriculum to meet the individual needs of my students. If you're like me and teach all subjects plus life skills then you know exactly how hard it is to find resources that tailor to the needs of your students so I have created some fun little resources that I thought I would share! I hope everyone enjoys!

Teaching style

In my classroom I like to teach using visuals, singing/making up crazy songs and using physical movements to help my students retain information. Structure is also key to having a smooth day! Each subject is ran in three 15 minute rotations along with the use of our visual schedules. I love creating worksheets, adapted books and having my students do projects! .

Awards & shining teacher moments

Shining teacher moment: Being invited after my first year of teaching to speak and teach at my district's annual Special Education training!

My own education history

Whoop! Fightin Texas Aggie class of 2013! I majored in Psychology with a minor in Sociology, but then decided teaching is where my heart is! I went through an AC program to teach and have never looked back!

Additional biographical information

I love learning new ideas, tricks and tips from other teachers so please feel free to always share!
