TEACHING EXPERIENCE

This is my 11th year teaching. I have taught first and second grade. I am in love with teaching and creating fun activities for my dear lil ones. Formerly, my store was Miss B's Playground. I moved and decided to change my name as well. Look for the same great quality products :)

MY TEACHING STYLE

"Please excuse the mess. The children are making memories."

HONORS/AWARDS/SHINING TEACHER MOMENT

"We didn't get into teaching to get rich, but to enrich others"

MY OWN EDUCATIONAL HISTORY

I have been teaching second grade for 11 years. I have taught inclusion classes, co-taught with a special education teacher, and have thorough experience with RTI. I have my bachelor's degree in both Elementary Education and English as well as Master's Degree in Curriculum and Instruction.
