Awards & shining teacher moments

Spearheaded Summer STEM ELL Camp June 2013- Responsibilities included budgeting, lesson planning, field trip organizing, supply requisition, and teaching. PAIRS is a group of highly regarded professional teachers who set the example for the school, are vital in deciding the direction of the school, and building a community within the school. PAIRS activities include being observed by other teachers for modeling classroom management, lesson development, differentiation, and much more. This opportunity also allowed me to work one on one with, and be observed and critiqued by, the co-founders of the PEAK Learning Systems. Attended PEAK Learning Systems Vail Summer Institute conference June 2013. Teaching for Excellence
