Additional biographical information

My store is made-up mostly of supplemental materials and projects because those activities are what I'm most passionate about. My actual front-loading lessons are a conglomeration of shared materials from various places, I'd be afraid to pass it off as my own. But these projects and activities, at least for me, are where the best discussions are had. I hope they work in your classroom and you get a lot of use out of them (and that it makes your life easier in just a little way).
