WELCOME TO MY CLASSROOM!
Hello! I'm excited to welcome you to my classroom. With 14 years of teaching experience, my passion lies in engaging students in meaningful learning that promotes critical thinking and analysis of the world around them.
I focus on real-world writing that connects students' experiences to the curriculum. I encourage my students to express their thoughts through authentic writing opportunities, allowing them to see the relevance of their education in everyday life.
I am dedicated to helping students develop a reading identity that empowers them to explore diverse genres and perspectives. By creating a safe and supportive classroom environment, I encourage students to share their insights and learn from one another. Together, we cultivate a culture of inquiry where questioning is celebrated, curiosity is nurtured, and "failure" is seen as a stepping stone to true learning and academic success.
Thank you for visiting my website! I look forward to sharing resources and insights that inspire engagement and higher-level thinking to foster a lifelong love for learning.
