About the store
Hi, I’m Julie, the educator behind MagiCore and MagiCore Academy. I spent ten years as a classroom teacher, where I discovered my love for creating my own standards-based resources for my students. I always aimed to make the materials the highest quality possible, ensuring that my students could see themselves reflected in the resources we used. My goal was to create rigorous, standards-based, and scaffolded materials to help my students achieve their best. At MagiCore, we strive to develop resources that inspire kids to learn about the world around them through engaging topics and innovative technology. For the past nine years, I have been a full-time curriculum writer, working with a dedicated team. Together, we are committed to creating the best resources for classroom teachers and homeschoolers, bringing a touch of magic to learning.

Teaching style

My teaching style is centered around creating an engaging and dynamic learning environment for students. I focus on developing standards-based resources that are rigorous, scaffolded, and reflective of my students' diverse backgrounds. I believe in the power of innovative technology to capture students' attention and enhance their learning experience. By incorporating digital tools, interactive activities, and hands-on projects, I strive to inspire curiosity and a love for learning. Engagement is key, and I aim to make every lesson interesting and interactive, helping students connect with the content and achieve their best.
