Test Prep - Critical Verbs

High stakes standardized testing is a stressful time for students and teachers. Preparing students for standardized testing is a challenging task. Unfortunately, even if students have the skills or knowledge to score well on an assessment, they may struggle with the verbiage in questions. Rather than teach the test, prepare students to recognize important words in the questions to help them successfully answer assessment questions. Introduce these important words throughout the school year. Us

About the store

Experience

I've been teaching for 40+ years. I was an elementary science specialist for much of my career, but have been teaching gifted education for the last 20+ years.

Teaching style

My teaching style is geared to meet the needs of my students’ learning styles. Sometimes that's like spinning a dozen plates at once. To the untrained eye, this may look like chaos, but there is real, student centered learning going on...and that is not always quiet or neat. I am definitely the “guide on the side” in my classroom.

Awards & shining teacher moments

I have been Teacher of the Year for my school system and NASA Teacher of the Year for my state. I have written curriculum for my State Department of Education as well as several other state agencies I conduct workshops and trainings at the local, state, and national level.

My own education history

I have a BS in elementary education from The University of Alabama, a MS in elementary education from The University of Alabama in Birmingham, and a gifted specialist certification from The University of Alabama.

Additional biographical information

Mom, Yai Yai, friend, widow, traveler, digital diva, list-maker, and a closet crafter. I'm pretty sure that if teachers ran the government, all our debt issues would be solved in short order.
