About the store

Experience

I have been teaching various grades and subjects in different places for over 25 years; 21 of them as a Kindergarten teacher in Florida. I love the Sunshine state and I love my kindergartners!

Teaching style

I enjoy teaching through arts and crafts! I strongly believe that busy hands are happy hands. One of the daily literacy centers in my class is the art center. It is my kids' absolute favorite! It needs a lot of prep, it gets very messy, but the little learners' hearts get filled with excitement and their homes with many wonderful keepsakes - so it's all worth it!

Additional biographical information

I enjoy my journey here on TpT! I am super excited to share my best resources with all of you! If you want to be the first one to know about my new posts, sales and freebies, please click on the green star to follow me!
