Teaching style
Creativity, play and tinkering are keys to engagement in the learning process. When we allow kids the time for wonder and awe in their learning, big things happen. Let's give our students the freedom to dream, imagine and grow in our classrooms!
My own education history
I am a teacher and an artist and believe they are intertwined practices that use creativity in many different ways.
Bachelor of Fine Arts, Bachelor of Science - Elementary Ed., Masters of Education, student of life!
