It encourages reflection, teamwork, and provides opportunity for class discussion.

I’m an educator, librarian, and literacy specialist with over 15 years of classroom experience teaching grades 3–5 across all subject areas.

Teaching style
My teaching style is hands-on, movement-based, and designed to promote deep thinking. I value collaboration as much as independent problem-solving, giving students opportunities to learn with others while also building confidence in their own ideas.
I enjoy taking on new challenges and encouraging my students to do the same. In my classroom and library, mistakes are viewed as a natural and valuable part of learning. I strive to create an environment filled with creativity, engagement, laughter, and meaningful learning experiences. After all, learning is just one big HOOPLA!
