About the store
Hello! My name is Megan and I'm so excited you are here. I am a wife, mother to 7 children, and a teacher. I began my teaching career in 4th grade, but my calling was for the younger grades. After 3 years, I moved to first grade and never looked back. I have 20 years of teaching experience in first grade. I loved first grade because the amount of growth that happens over the year is so rewarding. I think all teachers are heroes, but K-2 teachers work so hard planning multiple subjects, differentiating, and engaging young minds. Kudos to you! I hope my work as a curriculum writer eases some of your load and brings happiness and engagement to your students.
In addition to teaching, life has taught me many valuable educational lessons. In 2013, I was blessed with my daughter Charlie who has Down Syndrome. She is the center of our family and definitely a shining star. She has helped me reflect on my curriculum to ensure I am meeting the needs of a variety of learners.

Teaching style
In first grade modeling, being prepared, and consistency were the key to my success. I believe students learn best by being exposed to information in multiple ways. I also embraced the "I Do", "We Do", "You Do" method of teaching.
Awards & shining teacher moments
I won "Teacher of the Year" three times in my school district. However my most gratifying shining moments were the success I saw at the end of each school year.
My own education history
I attended Bowling Green State University for Undergraduate school and The University of Toledo for Graduate school.
Additional biographical information
I am the mother of triplets. I have two girls and a boy. I also have three step-children who I absolutely adore. Together my husband and I have a little girl who was born with Down Syndrome. She has changed all of our lives in the most amazing way. She is the center of our entire family, a little piece of all of us! Life is busy but I wouldn't have it any other way!
