TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I have been teaching in Los Angeles public schools for 21 (long!) years. I am passionate about making teachers' jobs ever-so-slightly more manageable. All materials I post are things that have successfully in my own classroom. My interests are cuddling animals, traveling, napping, swimming, and finding time-saving strategies/assignments that help me maintain a 40-45 hour work week.
