About Me

I'm a not-so-perfect third grade teacher, author, and mom/wife that LOVES TEACHING! I never win the "Golden Dustpan Award," and my classroom is always active. I am here to help those of you give up being PERFECT and just teach the learners in your classroom! Follow their lead!

My desks change around often, I usually have some insect as a pet, and I believe in student-driven environments.

Here I am with my Grandpa as a child. I keep this posted in my classroom to remind me of where I came from and to keep the little girl's perspective inside of me...and how each child in our classrooms are precious, important and filled with potential that does things their own way.


Being a teacher is such a rewarding calling. I have been a State Department Consultant,Title I Reading Specialist, Literacy Coach, Principal, and third and fifth grade teacher.


Thank you for visiting and I hope you can find some meaningful strategies and support on my blog!
