About the store
I have taught various Elementary grade levels for many years. After several years in the classroom I worked at the District Office level in the Curriculum Department and in the Assessment Department. I took a break from the District Office as an Academic Coach at an elementary school where I focused on Math, Science, Student Ownership of Learning, and Parent Involvement. I returned to the District Office to serve as an Interim Director of Curriculum and Instruction and then the Coordinator in Elementary Curriculum. I retired in August of 2021, but gladly still work with school teachers and administrators.

CUBES Math Problem Solving Strategy Resources
Many people who teach math use the CUBES strategy. There are several versions of this strategy, but this was created for use at my school as the 5th grade math teachers decided on these particular words. :) This resource contains a picture sample of a large poster, the pieces to make the poster shown in the picture, an 8 x 11 sheet and a set of 3 bookmarks on one page.

Six Traits Signs
I think teaching the Six Traits for writing is awesome! However, I struggled finding a set of classroom signs/posters that I liked. So, I created my own set of posters. I also made a "mini-set" of the same posters so I could put them in the hands of students. The mini-set would be a great addition to a writing journal, notebook, or binder. They could even be added to individual student writing desks. We printed the posters for all the classrooms at our school. These posters list the quest

Common Editing Marks
This document has a table showing the basic editing marks that all elementary students should be shown and learn to use. The document has two copies on one page of the same chart. Allowing each student to have their own copy in their writing journals, writing folders/notebooks, or on their writing offices would be an excellent use of these tables. Teachers should model these marks as often as possible in front of the students during model writing and when marking student writings. Enjoy!

Summarizing Foldable
Foldables are GREAT... teaching Summarizing is hard. This foldable form has directions written on it so that it can be placed in an independent center for students and can be used with any type of text. This is also a great foldable to use for whole class activities. (I have even used it with staff development workshops full of teachers.) Enjoy!

I believe in "service" to others, no matter the age. I hope that the items that I place here are helpful to others. At this time, I have no plans on charging for any of the items I place here.
