About the store
I'd much rather plan! I know assessment is important but I would much rather be working on my lesson plans, projects, and activities. Rubrics certainly save me! I hope that passion shows in the products I offer. I have been teaching for 18 years. I began this journey later on in my life and feel I have brought a great deal of experience from the different jobs I have performed and the many different places I have lived! I taught grade 7 - 9 for many of those years (all core) so you'll see some Math and Social Studies pop up in my store. I currently teach English, Drama, and Film Studies at the High School level and am loving it!

The Screenwriter - Research Activity & Creative Writing Activity
The screenplay is an artform and a style of writing students will be excited to explore. It offers them another avenue to be creative and will extend their story writing skills. Idea generation, characterization, and word choice, for instance, are just a few of the elements students will have the opportunity to practice, but in a new and exciting capacity. The ability to show, instead of tell, will ultimately lend positively to other writing genres and styles we attempt in English / Language

Teaching style
I really like project based learning and student-centred instruction. The kids need to find and practice independence in their learning. You'll see active novel studies, representation projects, and many opportunities for full class and small group discussion in my classroom. We need to model, offer examples, as well as offer interesting lessons and creative projects to get the best from our students.
