About the store

This is my 18th year of teaching first grade. In that time, I have worked with 80% ESL students. I have worked 7 years on a District Curriculum Mapping team. On this team I build the science, math, and ELA curriculum for grades K-5. I developed learning activities, assessments, and found resources for teachers to use in their instruction. I have been trained in SIOP method of instruction and RTI. This past year I served on our schools SIP team, data team, and RTI team. I completed my Reading and Literacy master's degree at Marygrove University in August of 2012.

SAVE A TREE! I have created this reusable way to practice spelling words. Create as many COLORED copies as you want of this document. Then laminate. The students can use Vis-a-Vis pens on them to practice their spelling words for the week. It simply washes off with water and a paper towel. You can use them week after week. I use mine in centers. I just provide the spelling list and the students do the rest.

Experience

Teaching style

I believe in reaching all learners. When doing a lesson I try to reach each learning style. With my ESL students it is highly important to have visual and hands-on experiences. I really believe in choice theory. I work hard on talking all my students through their good and bad choices. I feel that it is important to instill responsibility at an early age in order to make the students better citizens in the future.

Awards & shining teacher moments

I had the honor of presenting at the Michigan School Improvement Conference in 2012. I presented with some of my other colleagues on how our school closed the gap from 26% to 72% top to bottom.
