This is a poster I have in my room. It also has a picture of a howler monkey. I thought it would be a great reminder to all of us.

Teaching style
My teaching style uses brain based strategies. My students move, draw, interact with each other, listen to music, and work on projects. I enjoy using hands on activities where my students are engaged in their lessons. Read Alouds are a favorite!

Additional biographical information
I LOVE being a wife, mother, and teacher. I believe each day is a gift which is ours to open and cherish. Here in South Florida we have beautiful surroundings such as the Florida Keys and the beaches of Miami. Also, we enjoy our sports team such as the Miami Heat, Florida Marlins and the Miami Dolphins. My husband and I both are UF Gator alumni. Our children are our precious gifts. I am fortunate to be able to spend each day teaching the gifts of other parents and take my job to heart.
