About the store

Experience

We are Bob and Laura - a husband and wife teaching team with both of us having over 15 years of teaching experience in the upper elementary and middle grades.

Teaching style

Engaged students are students that learn best! We try to teach with a hands-on approach for students as much as possible.

My own education history

Bob has a bachelor's degree in Middle Childhood Education with concentrations in Mathematics and Social Studies. He has a master's degree in Curriculum and Education Technology. Laura has a bachelor's degree in Middle Childhood Education with concentrations in Language Arts, Reading, and Mathematics. She has a master's degree in Gifted Education.

Additional biographical information

To us, family is a part of education. We have been married for 16 years and have taught right across the hall from each other for the last 6 years! We have 4 children that attend the same school where we teach, so we all ride to school together as a family. As we create resources for our students and for other teachers, we remember that each child deserves the same love and dedication that we share with our own family. Therefore, we strive for high quality resources that allow students to enjoy learning.
