About the store

Experience

I have taught for 20 years in lower elementary grades including 9 years in 5K and 7 years in Second Grade and 6 years Looping to 3rd grade! I also have been involved in Professional development workshops and teaching Teachers; staff trainings involving technology.

Teaching style

I have an integrated style of teaching---I think that is the best way to describe it! My classroom runs with Balanced Literacy, Daily 5, CAFE strategies, guided reading centers...everything is revolving around technology while maintaining a structured student lead environment. We recently adopted a new Math program-Math expression and use traveling Science kits to support our Literacy goals.

Awards & shining teacher moments

-Nominated 15 years in a row for the Golden Apple Award. -Twice received grant money for Technology Service Projects-integrating SmartBoards in the classroom & technology integration project for wireless mice.

Additional biographical information

I enjoy being outside and soak up every minute of the "good" weather when we have it in Wisconsin! I'm an avid swimmer, love zumba classes, read like a fiend, and cook up a storm. To relax, I love gardening and take pride in my herbs. I love my job and my "school family", they are a close second to my own family and friends! Looping 2nd/3rd the last 6 years has expanded my professionalism immensely! I'm also a breast cancer survivor and take each day with a cup half full attitude, I am blessed! :)
