I have been teaching for 12 years with experience at all elementary grade levels with the past 5 years as a district math instructional coach for the largest school district in NC. I've presented many state and local workshops and conducted district professional development for k-5 teachers in the area of mathematics. Now I am a curriculum coordinator and instructional resource for k-5 grades working to support all areas of curriculum, instruction, and assessment. I've developed many research based tools for learning and teaching and currently write assessments and curriculum for math based around the Common Core State Standards. I hope that you find these resources relevant to your needs!
