| Welcome to my store! My name is Laurie Kraus and I am a literacy coach in Hollywood, Florida. My store is dedicated in memory of my mom, Sandra Rosen. Because I knew you, I've been changed for good. |
At my school I currently serve as the literacy coach. This job provides me with the opportunity to work with both students and teachers. In prior years I have taught first, second, third, fourth, and fifth grade. I also have taught gifted/high achieving students in first, second, and third grade.
My teaching style enables students to have an active role in their learning.
