Learn MoreI became a teacher because I wanted to do something “easy” for me, plus I love reading so I decided to share that love.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceMy most memorable teaching experience was when I had the highest number of students who had made growth/gain AND had the Most to make Grade Level on the NWEA test in the whole school! -READING
What would you do with the $25,000?I would FIRST pay for at least 3 school buses for at least 2 field trips to get my babies out of the building. I would have pizza , chicken, cupcakes, and ice cream for both classes that I teach, now. I would buy myself a dishwasher (I have never had one ). I would buy a NEW Laptop, save for the summer so that I won’t have to WORK , and have a bbq day for my students , grilling burgers and buy them chips and some juices!
