About the store
I have been teaching for 25 years. My lessons tend to incorporate cooperative learning and technology when appropriate. I've flipped my classroom successfully in years past so many of my lessons have this as an option. I've taught Cambridge Lower Secondary Global Perspectives class and I'm aiming it at the middle range of stage 8, which is typically 7th grade.
You may also see some STEAM incorporation in my lessons as previous school became a STEAM Magnet School in 2017.
In recent years, I've taught Special Education and in 2025, I ventured into the world of Math Intervention.
