About the store
Welcome to my online store, where I share engaging, effective lesson plans that have been classroom-tested and student-approved! A few years ago, I made the exciting leap to teaching middle school, and I’ve been loving every moment since. I currently teach Civics on Florida’s beautiful Nature Coast, where I use these very resources daily to inspire and challenge my students.
My approach has helped my students achieve top district scores for three consecutive years, with an 85% pass rate on the Florida EOC exam—success I’m incredibly proud of, especially as I teach a diverse group of ESOL and ESE learners. Whether you’re looking for innovative strategies or ready-to-use materials, these resources are designed to help you and your students succeed.

Teaching style
I am a Constructionist at heart. I believe in hands on learning and giving children the chance to explore, learn and grow. Hands on learning allows children the opportunity to take something apart, put it back together and possibly learn something in the process. Children are given the chance to not only see their mistakes but to learn from them.
