About the store
I am a veteran classroom teacher, credentialed to teach in California and Pennsylvania, with over 20 years teaching experience in grades K through 8. I've taught curriculum to English speaking and bilingual students which includes the multiple subjects of elementary school, and single subjects in middle school including English Language Arts, Simple Machines, Robotics & Engineering Design Process, and Architectural Rendering. I've been Teaching in grades Kindergarten through eighth since 1988. I enjoy the energy and vitality of the younger students, and I enjoy equally as much the academic conversations and projects that are possible with the older students.
