About the store
I taught for 3 years in 4th grade ELA, moved up to Junior High and taught 6th and 8th grade for a year, then moved into a full time 8th grade position. I love that middle school age and enjoyed finding new ways to keep them engaged, when it sometimes proved challenging. I currently live in Alabama and have taught virtually for Baltimore, Maryland for 2 years.

Neutral & Boho: Editable Good Morning/Welcome Slides

These 4 good morning/welcome slides are editable and hand designed. I created 4 different slides that stray from the usual bright colors and use neutral tones. Each slide includes different ideas for each category, but feel free to edit to match your needs. I also created the same slide designs, but with "Welcome," for teachers who have multiple periods throughout the day.

Character Analysis/Any Novel-What loot would your character leave behind?

In video games, when a character dies, they leave behind the loot they have collected. In this activity, students will imagine a character from their novel has left behind loot. They will draw their loot and describe why their character would carry this using text evidence. It will work for just about any novel, multiple grade levels, and any characters. You can also use at different points in the novel. This resource is great in the virtual setting or in person, or a combination. Personally,

Experience

Teaching style

I don't like busy work or time filling work sheets. I like to teach everything within the context of a text and have students work with topics of their interests. I try to give lots of options, grace, and time!

My own education history

I attended Texas Lutheran University in Seguin, Texas...GO BULLDOGS! I am an Army Brat, so I've lived all over the states. I was born in Louisiana and call that home.

Additional biographical information

I am a wife and Mom of two young children. I live a blessed life and am very thankful for the opportunity to share some of my resources to help fellow teachers out!
