Dear Teachers, Thank you for your purchase of the Adding and Subtracting One and Ten Chart. Developing mental math skills in children and helping them understand the patterns found in math is a stepping stone to faster, more accurate problem solving. It is my desire that these scaffolded sheets will help your students grasp the concepts of adding and subtracting tens and ones from any given number through successful repetition. In this set of sheets I have included 99 and 100 reference charts

Dear Teacher, Thank you for your purchase of this interactive work binder! Using manipulatives to demonstrate knowledge is a great way for young children to remember what they are learning in your classroom and apply that learning in a variety of ways. The manipulatives for the activities (like the red/yellow counters) can be stored in zip-closed bags and stored at the front of the activity pages. Activity pages can also be differentiated for the needs of specific students. The daily repeti

About the store

Experience

I have taught in both public and private schools for 8 years and have also homeschooled my own children. Each experience has its own challenges to overcome and rewards to enjoy. I have enjoyed coaching new teachers as well as sharing and receiving resources and ideas from teachers both new and experienced in the field.

Teaching style

I enjoy teaching with students learning along with me, sharing their thinking while I encourage them to go even deeper with their processing. We are very hands-on in first grade with hugs to all before leaving each day. My students won't remember every lesson that I spent hours preparing, but they will always remember whether or not I loved them.

Awards & shining teacher moments

I was chosen as Teacher-of-the-Year in 2010-2011.

My own education history

I attended private school from Kindergarten through tenth grades and then finished the remaining years of high school at a fine arts magnet school in my hometown. I received my BA in Early Childhood Education and later completed my Masters in Integrating Technology in the Classroom.

Additional biographical information

I married my high school sweetheart and we have two children. My oldest son was diagnosed with cancer when he was eleven years old, and that has been a test of faith, strength, and balance. I am very active in church and enjoy spending time with my family, reading, crocheting, cross-stitching, and researching innovative ideas in education in my free time.
