About the store

School Store Dramatic Play
If you are anything like me centers can be sometimes overwhelming when you are trying to make them meaningful. After years of just having a “house center” I am ditching that and creating a monthly store. The first month will be a school store where students can play and pretend to work in a school store. This will teach them taking turns, their school supplies, and allow them to use their imagination. Please check for my weekly center tasks as a part of this centers bundle. I hope this makes our

Missing Treasure Hunt- End of Year 1st Grade Math review
End of the year math review can be SO boring for all the kids, and teachers. Make this fun by finding the missing treasure by solving math problems. You can hide some type of "Treasure" in the final location. I hid cookies in the final location when my class did this. They are begging for more math review with this fun resource.

Experience
I began my teaching career in 4th grade where I spent 4 years teaching. I am now a 1st grade teacher. This is my 6th year teaching 1st grade. I create resources all the time for my own classroom so I can have exactly what I want. I decided it was time to list the things I create on my own teachers pay teachers account.
Teaching style
I love giving children options. Not all students learn in the same way or on the same day. It is important to me to make everything fun and engaging. With county mandates for curriculum it is hard to put my own flair on teaching but I work hard to do that every day.

My own education history
Bachelors in Elementary Education from Appalachian State University in Boone, North Carolina.
Additional biographical information
I am a Christian, a fire wife, a mom of two amazing little girls and two rowdy chocolate labs. I am a North Carolina teacher and I bleed Black and Gold for App State. Sundays are for church and football. Shopping, sweets, craft beer and crafting can heal any bad day.
Growing up both of my parents were teachers. My mom taught elementary and my dad taught 8th grade Social Studies. Wanting to be different and forge my own path I started as a Interior Design major. I quickly realized my calling for teaching overpowered my desire to be different. The rest is history. I recently transferred schools within my county to the school closest to my home, also the school my mother retired from. I was lucky enough to be placed in her old classroom with her amazing assistant that she retired with.
