About the store
I have been teaching elementary art in an Urban School district in Ohio since 2003. In 2006, I was asked to help write the curriculum for the district's elementary art department. Then in 2007, I was asked to clean up all of the curriculum lessons and appendices, create a timeline and integrate standards. In the following years I streamlined timelines for the rest of the visual art department. Through this process, I discovered my love of technology and how valuable it was in my own teaching style. Throughout the years I have created my own worksheets and handouts on the computer for students because the copier was jammed or there was a long line. Or simply there wasn't a worksheet out there so I created my own. I have been told that teachers could use what I make so I hope my work benefits your lessons and teaching.

Microsoft Word 2010. Handouts A-E For Elementary Students.
Teaching Microsoft Word to a group or class of elementary students can be challenging and daunting. That's why most teachers avoid teaching word processing to young students. Instead computer labs are mainly used to teach students to surf the web and research topics.

Teaching style
There must be a balance of foundation and play. I design lessons to challenge students to solve problems, design, create and at the same time give them confidence and awareness of the world around them.
Awards & shining teacher moments
My students' work have been selected three years in a row by two different art contests.
1. Friends of the Ravines. "Frog Kingdom" (http://www.friendsoftheravines.org/)
2. Port of Columbus's art galleries (http://flycolumbus.com/at-port-columbus/art-displays/).
In 2011, I had the privilege and honor to create CCS Unified Art's webpage. http://unifiedarts.columbus.k12.oh.us/visualarts/visual-art
My own education history
I have a Bachelors and Masters of Art Education from The Ohio State University.
With the educational changes from standards to common core, and focus on project-based learning, I have participated in numerous professional learning on how to incorporate SCIENCE, MATH, and TECHNOLOGY in art lessons without losing the ART. Hence STEAM.
