My first year of teaching was 7th grade science in Waco, Texas. Then I got married and moved to Virginia, where I taught 7th/8th grade mathematics (pre-algebra) for 12 years in and out of a collaborative model. I then taught 6th grade math virtually. Now I'm a 6-8 math interventionist in Tennessee (and loving it!).
I have found that although students can follow a formula, they tend to skip steps when they use the calculator. So I created this worksheet to force them into writing down every single little step. Here's what this worksheet makes them do: - Write the formula for the shape. - Identify the quantities for each variable. - Substitute the quantities for each variable. - Follow the order of operations when solving the formula. - Write the answer with the units.

This compact booklet includes everything students need to know about fraction operations. Printed as a booklet, it fits easily into a pocketed folder or could even be glued into an interactive notebook. Printed as posters, they make a colorful, interactive bulletin board! Comes in a black and white version, as well as color. A directions document is included with directions on how to print the booklet and other ideas for use. Table of Contents:I. Least Common Multiple II. Prime/Composite Numbers
This worksheet has 10 questions with two parts. This first part of the question asks the student to translate a verbal phrase into a numerical phrase. The second part asks the student to evaluate the phrase given a value for the variable.
It's a great worksheet that combines two important concepts!
This is a worksheet I made to let the students show me where they need extra help. It uses the idea of football to create levels of equations they must solve. Each level has 4 problems to solve before moving on. These are the levels -- Little League -- two-step equations Middle School -- combining like terms High School -- distributing College -- distribute and combine NFL -- variables on both sides At the end, the students can say which is the hardest level for them AND attempt an MVP proble

Experience
My first year of teaching was 7th grade science in Waco, Texas. Then I got married and moved to Virginia, where I taught 7th/8th grade mathematics (pre-algebra) for 12 years in and out of a collaborative model. I then taught 6th grade math virtually. Now I'm a 6-8 math interventionist in Tennessee (and loving it!).
Teaching style
I prefer hands-on, discovery learning with lots of discussion, activity, and analysis. I'm a big fan of Jo Boaler and standards-based grading, so I prefer collaboration over lectures.
Awards & shining teacher moments
My principal has honored me with the Starfish Award for going above and beyond my duties.
I have also been awarded Teacher of The Week by current and former students.
My own education history
I graduated from Texas A&M University with a Bachelor of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies. I am certified to teach grades 4-8 in math and science in Texas, grades 6-8 mathematics/science and Algebra in Virginia and Tennessee, and I hold a Master of Education in School Leadership.
Additional biographical information
I have led professional development on creating a positive relationship with middle school students. I also created the activities and worksheets we used in our 7th/8th grade math curriculum. As a math interventionist, I use small groups and collaboration to address learning gaps and misunderstandings.
