Experience

I have been teaching for over 20 years and have taught grades 1–5, including several combination classes. While I've enjoyed every grade level, 4th grade has always had my heart—and I'm lucky enough to currently teach my favorite grade!

Additional biographical information

Hi! I'm Ms. Clark, but sometimes I'm Mom! 💙 I absolutely love being both a teacher and a mom. I have an amazing son who I adore (and, like most moms, I'm completely obsessed with him!). Family is at the heart of everything I do, and that same love and care carries into my classroom and the resources I create. I have been teaching for over 20 years and have taught grades 1–5, including several combination classes. While I've enjoyed every grade level, 4th grade has always had my heart—and I'm lucky enough to currently teach my favorite grade! My goal is to create high-quality, low-prep resources that are easy for teachers to use and ready to go. Every resource in my store has been tested in my own classroom, so you can feel confident knowing they come from real experience with real students. I believe teachers are busy enough, and great resources should make life easier, not more complicated. When I'm not teaching or creating, you can usually find me spending time with my son, reading, solving math problems, cheering on my favorite sports teams, or enjoying a relaxing day at the beach. Thank you for stopping by Msclarkbutsometimesitsmom! I hope my resources help bring a little more joy and a lot less stress to your classroom. Happy teaching!
