TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I have 18 years teaching experience in grades 3-6 and as a special education resource teacher. This year, I am an RTI teacher, working with students in 1st and 6th grade.

MY TEACHING STYLE

My teaching style is fluid. It changes with the needs of my students. I incorporate movement and technology whenever possible.

HONORS/AWARDS/SHINING TEACHER MOMENT

Recipient of multiple grants for my classroom and school. Being called "mom" and "grandma" by my students. ;-)
