This classroom management tool changed my teaching forever! I have the document run off on two-part NCR (No carbon required) paper. These are then cut into the four slips. I always have some on my clip board when in my classroom or around campus. Prior to this, I struggled with the paperwork and logistics of assigning and monitoring after class detentions.

Experience

I retired from a 30-year career as high school math teacher. I am actively involved in providing professional development for math teachers grades 4-12. My passion is helping students (of all ages) get through prior stumbling blocks to learning math in a meaningful way. It is very important to me that activities, presentations and all documents used for learning look professional.

I helped create a website for our teachers that contains classroom activities that are ready to use.

Teaching style

Since I am a visual learner, I believe in using color to help accentuate connections in concepts. Besides including graphics with my activities, I try to present material in multiple modalities. I firmly believe that all students can learn math and excel in it. I have a "growth mindset," and work to help others understand how that can help them learn math. My favorite thing to say to any person who says, "I'm not good in math," is "You aren't good in math YET!"

My own education history

Masters of Arts and Bachelors of Science degrees in Mathematics from San José State University. Single Subject teaching credential in mathematics also from San José State University.
