About the store
I have taught for 6 years at a three different Title 1 schools. I work only a few miles from the Mexico border and therefore have an over 85% English Learner class. During my time teaching I have begun numerous programs such as Battle of the Books, Debate, Poetry Recitation, etc. I have worked at schools that place a high focus on PLC and collaboration and have been lucky to work with some of the best teachers I know. Additionally, I have lived in both Ecuador and Mexico and have had multiple opportunities to learn and speak the language and become immersed in the culture.

Literary Genre Passports are the perfect way for students to keep track of their reading all year!! I originally created these for my own classroom and kids were soooo excited to get them.

Students can write in the title of the book, the date the read it, the level of the book and the number of pages. Once they have filled up a genre, you can give them a stamp or sticker on th

ABC Fish and Their Habitats Book Templates

I created these templates to use for a Under the Sea Unit that I did with my first graders. Each letter is matched up with a different animal. As I went through each page of the book I taught the students about the part of the ocean that animal lived in. We created a large poster of an ocean replica (showing the different parts of the ocean) and as we went through each type of fish we glued that fish into its appropriate habitat. For this book you will need to print the pages cut them in hal

Restorative Practices' Primary Questions-Incident Report- K-3

This form is the primary version of my Restorative Practices' Incident Report. It works well for keeping track of incidents in the classroom and for students to self-reflect. It is also really helpful for us as teachers to not respond in the heat of the frustration. Instead of me immediately responding to their behavior, I provide them with the incident form. This gives them time to cool down as they are reflecting, as well as giving me time to consider what I am going to say. Additionally,

Coordinate Plane Post It Notes Template

One of the most time consuming things for students when learning about graphing is drawing their own coordinate planes. These templates can be printed from your printer by placing sticky notes on the squares and printing. Make sure that you are familiar with which direction your printer works. I suggest printing the second and fourth page that don't have the lines when printing the actual templates. Don't forget to review the product as well as follow my store! Happy teaching!

About the store

Experience

I have taught for 6 years at a three different Title 1 schools. I work only a few miles from the Mexico border and therefore have an over 85% English Learner class. During my time teaching I have begun numerous programs such as Battle of the Books, Debate, Poetry Recitation, etc. I have worked at schools that place a high focus on PLC and collaboration and have been lucky to work with some of the best teachers I know. Additionally, I have lived in both Ecuador and Mexico and have had multiple opportunities to learn and speak the language and become immersed in the culture.

Teaching style

I believe in a collaborative, 21st century learning style while still maintaining the balance of good, solid literacy and writing instruction. I believe that students will prosper when given a positive learning environment that is safe for them to fail, learn from their mistakes, and be successful in. I also believe that students need to learn at differentiated levels in order to meet grade level expectations or above. I teach in a Reader's and Writer's Workshop model and I believe highly in small group learning at their instructional level because I have seen this work. Particularly when students are not reading at grade level. I always give 110% at everything I do and I hope my time at TPT will reflect that.

Awards & shining teacher moments

San Diego Reading Association- Awarded for making a significant contribution in the area of reading in the San Diego County area for my work starting Battle of the Books. Awarded a full scholarship at University of Phoenix through a writing contest in order to obtain my masters, which I completed. I was chosen out of 6000 applications and was the only one awarded this scholarship. It was an amazing opportunity for me to complete my Masters!
