JillJohnsonSTEM

I'm Jill, an educator and STEM enthusiast with 10 years of experience teaching in elementary! I love to share creative ways to use technology, integrate STEM, SEL, inquiry based learning and more in the classroom! I worked as a STEM Integration specialist, Educational Consultant, Interventionalist & Reading Specialist, and Curriculum Developer.

Encourage the beauty of mistakes! Learning is most enjoyable when we can provide as many opportunities for students to explore and learn through interests and curiosities. Cognitively guided instruction and STEM Design Challenges are just a few examples of my teaching approaches.
