This is my ninth year as an educator in OMSD. Seven of those nine years has been teaching in the classroom grades 3-6th grade. The other two years were spent as a District TOA that supported with PD in the areas of curriculum, technology, and more.
As you walk into my classroom, virtually or in person- I hope it is evident that it is a place where mistakes are honored and welcomed. I believe fostering a growth mindset within the classroom with our rigorous program is vital in their success. My goal is to help students internalize the material by understanding strength in silence paired with opportunities for discussion through the use of Kagan strategies and knowing we met our learning target based on our Eureka lesson structure of the day. For digital learning my hope is to build their understanding of content through exciting platforms that allow their learning to become internalized.
