I have been an elementary school teacher since 2012. I have taught preschool, 2nd, 4th, and 5th grades. I think I've found my passion in second grade!
I am an in the moment teacher. I write my lesson plans but still fly by the seat of my pants. This means that I am always responsive to my learners. It may be planned to go in one direction, but I am comfortable when it doesn't! I love hands on whole brain learning and collaborative learning. We use manipulatives constantly and work with partners or in groups all the time. I also love combining technology with teaching!
Student notes! What more do you need!!!
I received my degree from WGU. I am certified Prek-5. I have a masters degree in Learning and Technology.
