About the store
I have been a teacher for 6 years in lower elementary classrooms in general and special education settings in both public and private schools. I love every aspect of students' journey while learning to read and write, math, and adjust to life in the classroom.
I have worked with a range of student abilities and understand the need for differentiation to ensure access and engagement to the curriculum for all students. My materials provide both scaffolds for struggling students as well as extensions for advanced students to ensure every child is getting the most from the materials and create a pathway to success. There is no one size fits all in any classroom!
