The triangle is used for its points: one connection to their own life, one prediction the student has and one question the student is wondering about. This can be adapted for any chapter :)

My name is Ashley and I'm in my seventh year of teaching at an urban high school in Pennsylvania. I teach a self-contained Reading Class for Special Education students. I instill in my students positive attitudes in and out of the classroom!

Teaching style

Positive Reinforcement all the way!

Awards & shining teacher moments

I studied at Marywood University and dual majored to obtain my Bachelors degree in Elementary Education and Special Education. I continued my education and obtained my Masters degree in Reading Education.

My own education history

I'm certified as an Elementary Education Teacher, Special Education Teacher and Reading Specialist.

Additional biographical information

I love teaching and encouraging my students to be lifelong learners and readers! Growing up, I never had a teacher that made reading fun and exciting for me, so my goal is to be that teacher for my students.
