About Me

I’ve been teaching and learning in Room 213 for almost thirty years. It feels odd writing that because it just seems like yesterday that I was a new teacher, full of passion and ideas.

I still am. But now, I have a much better idea of how to engage kids in learning without making myself crazy at the same time. I see teaching as an art and a science, and over the years I’ve experimented and tweaked, keeping what worked and changing things that didn’t.

And now, it’s my great pleasure to share what I’ve learned with you. I know what it’s like to be overwhelmed. I know what it’s like to spend my weekend grading and planning instead of resting and recharging. After too many years of giving too much of myself – it’s ok to say that you don’t have to do that – I decided to focus on finding ways to be an effective teacher that also has a life. It’s been a whole lot of fun ever since I made that switch.

Now I create lessons for teachers for Teachers Pay Teachers, and I share my strategies right here on my blog.  And I just love knowing that I’m able to give some of you a few more hours in your day.

If you’d like to get updates on blog posts and sales, as well as lots of tips and freebies, be sure to sign up for my newsletter. I promise not to overwhelm you with emails – I’ll just send them when I have something awesome to share 🙂
