BlackboardBoutique

Welcome to Blackboard Boutique! I have 14 years experience in elementary education in both General and Special Education settings. My heart lies in foundational skills and am passionate about supporting students who need that extra boost to reach grade-level goals. I know firsthand the challenges of differentiating for diverse learners, which is why I create resources that make complex skills and tasks accessible and engaging. I’m so glad you’re here to join me in the mission of helping every student grow

At Blackboard Boutique, my teaching style is rooted in the belief that students learn best when they are given multiple pathways to success. I design resources that bridge the gap between high-interest engagement and rigorous foundational skills. My activities frequently incorporate a mix of hands-on manipulation, sensory-rich tasks, and traditional reading and writing to ensure every learner—regardless of their starting point—can access the curriculum. My ultimate goal is to foster student independence. By building in clear structures for accountability and ownership, I empower students to take charge of their learning within a fun, welcoming atmosphere where they feel safe to take risks and grow.
