About the store

My first experience included substitute teaching, in which I truly learned a lot while working with a variety of grade levels and classroom settings, including special education. I then taught Kindergarten for four years in a Catholic school. I have worked with all grade levels through my experience as a Title I teacher for four years, too. My most recent experience has been in a departmentalized setting for 5th and 6th grade math. Coming this August, I will take on a new challenge of RTI/math specialist. I have a Masters degree in instructional strategies. My endorsements include math, language arts, and science.

These are visual graphic organizers that can be used as part of a lesson, review, or at a station with specific tools to complete. For example, use rubber stamps for the money. Provide rulers to draw segments that size. These can also be leveled. For students identifying numbers, simply have them locate and circle the corresponding digit on the clock/ruler/phone. Again, it promotes stronger retention to provide these concrete materials in connection. For more advanced learners, or dependent upo

These follow up 1-10, with progression of certain skills, while also continuing to review. They tend to follow a best math practice strategy: concrete - pictorial - abstract. Again, teachers have the freedom to use as review, morning starters, as part of a lesson showing connections among skills (another best math practice) rather than isolation of skills! With ruler, students can either locate the digit or draw a line segment that measures its number. I also observe, as many of you probably do

Experience

Teaching style

I believe in promoting higher order thinking skills through classroom discussion as well as the activities I choose to use with my students. You may observe many of my projects are open-ended in order for the students to create, think on their feet, and use those higher order thinking skills to demonstrate understanding. This often also allows differentiated levels more easily by students' generated responses and work! When students CREATE, it doubles the learning! I love to continue to learn, am always open for hearing new ideas/suggestions, and sharing with others!

Awards & shining teacher moments

I have published my own children's book, "Mardi Gras in New Orleans: an alphabet book." It is a goal to hopefully publish another one, or two, or three. You get the picture!
