About the store
I taught in South Carolina Title I Schools for ten and a half years. My first two years were spent teaching a 4th/5th grade multiage homeroom. I taught Math, Language Arts, and Science. I taught Science Lab for five years before returning to a looping 4th/5th grade classroom, teaching Math, ELA, Science, and Social Studies. I have taught Gifted and Talented Math for five years. Having taught Everyday Math for eight years, I have flipcharts prepared for almost every fourth, fifth, and sixth grade lesson. Please contact me if you would be interested in those. I have since gone on to teach in Georgia and Colorado, focuing on STEM education.

5th Math CCSS STEM Performance Task: Play-Area Pavers

This CCSS Performance Task is a four part task modeled after Smarter Balanced test questions. Students engage with four questions which build upon one another under the guise of developing the pavers a fast-food restaurant chain will use to remodel the playgrounds at their locations. The fourth task in this activity can also be used to assess concepts about coding that students may have learned through a STEM initiative, but prior experience with coding is unnecessary for success in this activ

Telling Time Using the Hour Hand

Do your students frequently tell you it's 8:57 when the clock actually reads 7:57? This lesson will help! When my fourth and fifth graders frequently read an analog clock wrong any time it displayed a time in the second half of an hour, I developed this method to help them tell time accurately and confidently.

Teaching style

HANDS-ON! I love integrating technology and use an Interactive White Board non-stop. I had an opportunity to teach in a 1:1 iPad classroom for a year and loved it! I spend as little time as possible lecturing. We're almost always creating, experimenting, viewing, observing, manipulating, role-playing, and discovering.
