I help upper elementary teachers integrate technology into their lessons and activities to increase student engagement and save precious planning time. I have been teaching for over 8 years and have spent most of that time in upper elementary (most years in 4th grade). I tried out 8th grade for one year but my heart is in upper elementary. Technology and time savers are my jam!!! I have spent a long time learning how to incorporate technology and reading strategies into my lessons for all subject areas. I believe student engagement is extremely important for learning and I love inspiring students to learn! I want to help you save time and create engaging technology-filled lessons!
I believe that relationships are key. I want my students to know that I care about them and that I believe in them. Inspiring them and fostering a love for learning is very important to me. I want all students to be life long learners!
I have lead several technology classes for teachers.
I have a bachelor's degree in Elementary Education. I also have a minor in Spanish and a minor in Science. I have had extensive technology training and often take it upon myself to seek out more training in this area. I want to be able to support my colleagues and students as best I can in this area.
I am a mom to two amazing little boys. Our days are full of activities and we love spending time outside whenever we can! Crafting is an outlet of mine! I love creating something new for my home or classroom.
