Action Goal Tracker

Action goals for students struggling with making good choices. Visuals next to the 5 goals, as well as a space for rewards. I give one to a student and they keep it for the week and carry it with them from class to class. After class, I have the student rate themselves. What they did well with. Then put points out of 5 (or however many goals they have).

Teaching style

My teaching style is rooted in trauma-informed care, restorative justice, and community building, with a strong foundation in psychology and child development. I believe that learning happens best in safe, supportive environments where every student feels seen and valued. I also love bringing a little weirdness and humor into my lessons to spark curiosity, lower barriers, and make the classroom a place where students can relax and engage. My resources are designed to foster connection, creativity, and critical thinking while keeping things fun and meaningful.
