About the store
I have been teaching in the intermediate grades, as both a general classroom teacher, as well as a special education teacher. I have used a variety of programs and learning approaches throughout my career. Like many, I have often worked in places where there has been a lack of resources to support state standards or district initiatives. Therefore I have an extensive collection of teacher made materials. I hope some of the things I have created can be useful to you, and save you the time it takes to create them.

Get to Know Graphic Aids Activity (included in my teaching info. text packet)
In this activity, students learn 6 different types of graphic aids: flow chart, time line, map, table, charts and graphs, and pictures with captions. They are given student friendly definitions of each, and then are given a second sheet that has an identified example of each. The students must cut apart the definitions and examples and try to match them. After their answers have been checked, they can paste the definitions with the examples onto a separate sheet to be used as a reference.

Teaching style
Hands on, cooperative learning approaches seem to be what I gravitate towards. However, I think using a variety of styles in lesson planning is beneficial to the students.
