I teach for the New York City Department of Education. I have taught for 16 years, third through six grades.
I will try anything once! Currently using a balance of Go Math, balanced literacy, the Common Core Learning Standards, and Whole Brain Teaching. I will take anything and run with it full-throttle!
Teaching is its own reward (for the moment!)
