About the store

Experience

I have taught for 24 years in an array of grade levels ranging from 2nd grade inclusive to graduate school for teachers. I am a Master Teacher, Seminar Leader, College Instructor in the Education Department & in charge of the Common Core adoptions in my subject area.

Teaching style

I am 'hands-on', thus I want my students busy, problem solving and working independently or in teams on tasks that last longer than 5 minutes. I like to maximize the space on any worksheet so I avoid graphics while utilizing as much opportunity for practice.
