Every product I've looked through talks about the 8 parts of speech, often overlooking the articles (a, an, the), so I like to teach the 9 parts of speech: -Nouns -Verbs -Adjectives -Adverbs -Pronouns -Articles -Conjunctions -Interjections -Prepositio

Experience

Going on my 3rd year of teaching. Year 1 was 3rd grade general education. Year 2 was 4th grade Integrated Co-Teaching. Year 3 is back to 3rd grade general education.

Teaching style

I love hands on learning. By manipulating materials, children can attach experiences to knowledge to remember it better. I also think that teachers need to make learning fun for kids. A professor once told me "Where attention goes, energy flows." You have to grab your students' attention and use the little time you have of it to impart meaning.
