Experience

Hi! I'm Wendy Beck, and I LOVE creating resources that support kids and teachers through technology! I especially want to make UFLI even easier for teachers and more engaging for students. I hope you find something that meets your needs! 💙

Teaching style

I am a HUGE supporter of the science of teaching reading. I have certification in Orton-Gillingham through the Institute of Multi-Sensory Education, and I'm certified to teach various Lindamood-Bell programs: LiPs, Seeing Stars, and Visualizing/Verbalizing. I've attended workshops/training with leaders in research-based literacy instruction, including Louisa Moats (LETRS) and Tim Rasinski. While teaching 1st grade, I utilized SECRET STORIES with my class, and found that it worked well as a support to the UFLI program! Teaching should be structured, but it should also be fun!!

Awards & shining teacher moments

As an undergrad at Butler University, I worked as an intern at the PRIME TIME office of the Indiana Department of Education, where my eyes were opened to the inner workings of state-level instructional planning and guidance! During my first years of teaching 2nd grade at North Dearborn Elementary in Indiana, I was invited to travel to FRANCE to observe French classrooms and experience a different culture- another eye opener! Later, as a 2nd grade teacher at Bright Elementary, I worked through the PTO to write and then fulfill a technology grant (thanks to the Dearborn Community Foundation) that provided document cameras and projectors to each classroom in our school! During that time I was also a coach for my son's Destination Imagination team, which came in first at the state competition and traveled to GLOBALS to compete. What an amazing experience! While teaching 1st grade at Sunman Elementary, also in Sunman-Dearborn Community Schools, I was blessed to work with many amazing teachers and staff. We supported each other and THRIVED during the Covid lockdown where all teaching was done through technology and online learning. To me, that time solidified the importance of finding (or creating!) innovative technology supports for both students and teachers!

My own education history

Milan High School (Indiana)- '54 State Champs!! Butler University (Indianapolis)- Go Bulldogs! Purdue University (West Lafayette)- High Ability coursework Indiana Wesleyan University- Master's Degree- Woohoo!

Additional biographical information

I owe thanks to the following: * Mrs. Slater and Mr. Schein at Milan Community Schools who challenged me and made learning fun and creative! * Staff and colleagues at Sunman-Dearborn Community Schools who encouraged me to be a leader, and helped me find the right tools for the job! * Mrs. Chris Utter, who offered me my first teaching job. She modeled professionalism, curiosity, and excellence in teaching. I wouldn't be the teacher that I turned out to be without her!!
