About the store
I taught Early Childhood Family Education and Preschool classes for eleven years in the public school system. Then I decided to embarked on a new adventure with my own children and I am on my eleventh year of homeschooling my children. My oldest just graduated High School and was able to using CLEP Testing and DSST Testing along with our states Post Secondary Education program to also have Junior standing in college. I hope to create more resources for homeschooling high schoolers in the future. Everything I have created is something I could not find myself but wished I had for the classroom or as a homeschool mom working with a co-op.

About the store

Experience

I taught Early Childhood Family Education and Preschool classes for eleven years in the public school system. Then I decided to embarked on a new adventure with my own children and I am on my eleventh year of homeschooling my children. My oldest just graduated High School and was able to using CLEP Testing and DSST Testing along with our states Post Secondary Education program to also have Junior standing in college. I hope to create more resources for homeschooling high schoolers in the future. Everything I have created is something I could not find myself but wished I had for the classroom or as a homeschool mom working with a co-op.

Teaching style

I believe children learn best through play and exploring naturally in the classroom. So many of my products are small center activities that children can often explore independently. Some will require a teacher's assistance or can be used for whole group learning.

Awards & shining teacher moments

I have been an Internal Coach for the Americorps program Reading Corps, I had a literacy tutor in my classroom that worked with the children and did literacy activities and interventions to help prepare them for Kindergarten and to be fluent readers by 3rd grade. I made sure that the tutors are following the program with integrity.

My own education history

I have a Bachelors degree in Child and Family Studies from St. Cloud State University.

Additional biographical information

I am also the mother of two children who have taught me so much about how children learn and grow.
