Experience

Teaching style
Our classroom, the students and mine, is a learner centered area where we focus on becoming sound problem solvers thorough the use of higher level questions, activities, and also by having growth mindsets. We may not know the answer or "stink at reading", but we just do not know the answer YET and stinking at reading is a temporary, easy fix with a positive growth mindset.

Additional biographical information
Being a teacher has its definite perks, such as giving us this invitation to join our students on their journey through understanding. I could not imagine holding another position, as my career, that would carry as much meaning. I am a mom to a kind and creative 11 year old person. :) I love working with and educating kiddos and learning from them too!
