About the store

Experience

As a Gifted and Talented teacher, a have a lot of experience in many content areas and many grades. I provide enrichment opportunities for both small groups of high-ability students and differentiated instruction for whole classes.

Teaching style

I believe that every student deserves a challenge. With differentiated activities, we provide all children the chance to think and to work hard to come to an answer. No matter what level they are working at, students should use several skills while working on one question to help develop problem-solving strategies. I always tell my students: There's no such thing as "I can't." You just haven't yet!
