About the store

Experience

I have been a teacher for over 16 years. I have taught primarily in small rural schools with multi-grade classrooms. I have taught all grades and subjects in this time - except high school physics or chemistry! I spent many years teaching upper elementary, middle school and high school Language Arts.

Teaching style

My teaching style is one that uses a variety of cooperative, learner-centered opportunities. Students in my room will do a lot of project-based learning, STEAM/STEM projects and inquiry activities. In addition to that I aim to meet the needs of all students in my care, with activities and learning that is customized to their learning needs.
