Below is a link to my teacher of the year documents. I was nominated by the teachers in my school for "Teacher of the Year" for the school year 2009-2010. In these documents you will find my resume and professional development information.

Teacher of the Year 2009-2010 Bio/Professional Development

I am currently working on my Master's Degree in Elementary Education throught East Tennessee State University. I am currently enrolled in a Teaching for Science Inquiry class. During this class, we have had to read several articles about teaching science in the elementary classroom. Below are links to a couple of the articles I have read.

If you would like to share your opinions about teaching science to elementary students, I would appreciate you filling out the survey below. It will help to structure my science class differently next year. Thank you for your input.

Below are a few links to lessons, games, and projects that I have created for use in my classroom. I have great success using these activities with my students. Feel free to use them in your own way!
