I am an Elementary and Special Education Certified Teacher, with over 25 years of teaching experience. I have a B.A. in English and Elementary Education, and an M.S. in Special Education. Likewise, I have taught the following classes K-5: ELA, Science, Math, Social Studies, and Special Needs. In my classes, we have discussions about what we are reading. This is active learning. Active learning is very important in gaining knowledge and sharing it with others. I encourage this kind of learning. I love reading books and sharing them with my students. It prompts critical thinking skills. I look forward to meeting you!
