Genre Posters! I wanted genre posters for my own 5th grade classroom, and most of the ones I found felt a little too young. I decided to create my own. I used key words and phrases to describe each genre and a picture to help illustrate the idea. Each mini poster takes up just over half of a sheet of cardstock or paper. I chose to print them out in black and white on colored cardstock and mount them on black construction paper (see the photo in the listing). *You get two sets of posters in thi

About the store

Experience

Most of my teaching experience has been in the upper elementary/lower middle school grades. However, some of my materials may be appropriate for all grade levels.

Teaching style

I like to keep procedures and lessons structured, but always keep in mind that flexibility is important. You just never know when creativity, a new great idea, an interesting conversation, or a need for some research will present itself!

My own education history

BA in Communications Writing; MA in teaching.

Additional biographical information

Outside the classroom, I am passionate about animal rescue, and often volunteer for a local rescue group in my area. I also love the beach in all seasons, am always in the middle of reading a book, and can often be seen in my neighborhood walking my two dogs. My husband is a very patient and understanding man, who encourages all the time I spend on teaching preparation and animal rescue. I'm lucky to have him!
