I have taught for 8 wonderful and crazy years! The first 5 years were with 5th graders. Alas, I am short so many of those 5th graders were taller than me. The last 3 years have been in 3rd grade. 3rd graders are so wonderful. I absolutely love this grade!

Experience

I have taught for 8 wonderful and crazy years! The first 5 years were with 5th graders. Alas, I am short so many of those 5th graders were taller than me. The last 3 years have been in 3rd grade. 3rd graders are so wonderful. I absolutely love this grade!

Teaching style

I love anything that is interactive, musical, or thematic. I love cross curricular projects especially when it follows my themes. So far, my themes for the year are pirates for the first trimester, ninjas for the second, and all things medieval for the third trimester. Look for fun activities along my theme lines in the future!
