Experience
I have been the coding and MakerSpace teacher for the past three years. I am sharing my love of the design challenge with these fun Google Slides and other resources!
Teaching style
I love my slides to be colorful, interactive, and engaging for my kindergarteners all the way up to my fifth graders.
My own education history
I've been in my corporation for 15 years - I started off as a Kindergarten instructional assistant for two years, then I moved to teach second grade for eight years, an Title One Math Interventionist for two years, and for the past three years I have been the Coding and MakerSpace specials teacher.
