Tessellation Project
Tessellations are a great way to combine geometry with art. This lesson is to be used in the collaborative teaching classroom of Mathematics and Art. While the mathematics teacher will teach the students of rotation, translation, and reflection, the art instructor will teach of M.C. Escher’s life and method of tessellations that he used in his lifework. I have found that his lesson is a lot of fun to do during Christmas time so students can design seasonally. It is a great project for supplement

Hands-On Right Triangle Trigonometry
After teaching students the lesson on right triangle Trigonometry, I take my students outside for this activity which is finding the height of the school flagpole by using right triangle trigonometry. My students make the Clinometers out of protractors, straws, string, and washers, then use them to find the angle of elevation from their line of sight to the top of the flagpole. This is a great hands on lesson that helps students understand what they are actually calculating in class!

Parallelogram Discovery
This is a lesson you can use on the GeoGebra Math App. This app can be downloaded on computers or you can use it for free off of the internet. I have found this activity to be a great learning tool when teaching students the properties of quadrilaterals. Students remember better when they discover it themselves! This product is easy to follow and have the students print or save their answers on their GeoGebra accounts.

Experience
I have taught middle school and high school Mathematics. This will be my 18th year of teaching!
Teaching style
I love structured notes that allow students to read,follow along and keep organized all their fundamental topics needed for successful learning. Besides this, fun activities are essential for keeping them engaged and it helps them practice their new skills! I believe it is so important to learn your classrooms personality and change your plans to match what helps them learn the best. This means I am always looking for new, fun ideas and activities to keep my students engaged! I believe that the appearance of what we give our students matters a lot. My students seem to really like a more modern look to any material I give them. It is important to grab their interest with new and creative ideas! I am never afraid to try something new!
