I believe that hands-on is the best way to teach conc

About the store

Experience

I have been teaching for over 30 years in K to 3 classrooms. I specialize in K to 3 and ELL classrooms.

Teaching style

My teaching style has evolved over the years. I strongly believe in demonstrating and supporting respect for all people in the class. That said, I also believe in structure and firm boundaries. I believe that children work best in an environment where they have a lot of choice to do hands-on activities. Children need plenty of opportunity to walk around and to talk when learning. I also strongly believe that children learn to read when they read every day, especially struggling readers.
