Hello! I am so grateful to have you in my class for 6th Grade Math! We are going to have a fun year learning :) I love teaching and math! I enjoy when everyone is involved in math games and activities, working together and spreading kindness <3
I earned my Bachelor of Science in Mathematics with a minor in English from UTRGV and finishing at Texas State~
This will be my 9th year teaching! Previously, I have taught at various IDEA Public Schools, Bob Hope High School in Port Arthur, and Donna ISD High School.
This is my 4th year at CVMS and teaching middle school grades.
Previously, I have taught: Geometry, Algebra I & II, Pre-Calculus, along with TSI Camp and tutoring Calculus. Thus, I have taught every grade 6 through 12 EXCEPT 7th grade.
Did I mention I love math :D
In my free time, I enjoy weight lifting, walking my dogs, fishingggggg, attending sports games, gaming on my PC that I built, and pretty much anything dealing with being outside in nature and family.
Let's have a great year~*~*
From top to bottom, there is Papi (RIP 2023),
Zeke (RIP 7/30/25) and Sky. We just recently adopted our friend's dog, Freckles! My husband and I enjoy taking care of them with training and exercise - a healthy lifestyle! We love taking them swimming, too!
This is my husband, and he is a PE Teacher and coach, so you might see him on the field! He earned his Master's from Lamar University while coaching the football team there and even made it to the playoffs! We are a great 'team' and though we have no children, for now, our students brighten up our life ^_^
For a detailed list of what we are doing this week, we will be using Schoology. All important dates will be posted and ready to go by the end of the 2nd week of school.
10% homework
30% quizzes (2-3 per 9-weeks)
60% tests (2-3 per 9-weeks)
All students will make test corrections to every test, regardless of the grade earned; they should do this on their own, it is not to be turned in so that they can find their own mistakes.
If a student receives a grade less than 70% on any assessment/quiz they need to:
-correct their original assessment using our pink correction paper and have their parent/guardian sign once they are finished
-corrections for a maximum grade of 70%
-tutorials are recommended but not required
To see the most updated grade, please check Home Access Center. I would recommend you check grades with your child once a week. Pick a day that is good for you. In our house Friday is good. It helps dictate what they can do on the weekend. I would also recommend you set alerts in HAC so you receive a text or email telling you when something has gone wrong.
If a student is absent, it is their responsibility to get the work that was missed. This is now found in their Schoology folder marked by date. Click HERE to Log in to Schoology.
He/she will have the same number of days they were gone to turn in the makeup work. If they miss an assessment, they will be expected to take it when all their makeup work is due.
If your student fails to turn in an assignment on time, there will be a 10 point penalty for turning it in 1 day late. After that, there will be an additional 5 points taken off for each day.
This journal is an online version of the one we will make in class. It includes links to the actual documents, video of me teaching the lessons, and a picture of the completed journal page. Enjoy this fantastic resource!

*The order will change but they are the same topics! If you want to get ahead or catch up, it's all there for ya~
*CBA (district tests) occur between and after each module. Test dates are posted in our Schoology.
