Welcome teacher friends! I’m Nicole, the woman behind Brownie Points. I am a primary teacher, avid learner, and accidental entrepreneur! Creating resources for teachers is a passion *nerd alert*. I treasure the opportunity to connect with educators all around the world and I’m humbled to know that my resources are helping students and teachers.
I began my career in 2005 as a kindergarten teacher before moving to first grade with a brief stint in second grade. I love teaching primary - the children are so willing and eager to learn and provide unconditional love and admiration!

Teaching style
I regularly use hands-on activities and visuals to bring unfamiliar concepts to life. I have many English language learners so this is vital! My students love centres, iPads, videos, and PowerPoint games. My favourite subjects to teach are science and math.
