Sample Tasks & Activities
The following are only a few examples activities done in my classroom.
Pi Day Digital Breakout​
Students use math, critical thinking, & collaboration skills to complete a digital breakout & "Save Pi Day" in time for us to celebrate! So much fun - and so much math talk! Some students who did not complete the challenge during the allotted time, even went back to complete each puzzle on their own after class ended.

Effective Strategies for Autistic & ADHD Students
This is a video I put together for a group research project in my Master's Program. The research done was to find the most effective strategies to best include students with Autism Spectrum Disorder and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder in a mainstream classroom. My group & I conducted the research and I put together this quick video that briefly introduces ASD and ADHD as well as mentions a few effective strategies that can be implemented in the classroom.

​Sample Charts created for Class
​-Summarizing
-Sequence of Events
-George Washington
-Syllabication
-Categorize and Classify
-Questioning
​
These are different charts I've created with my first graders throughout the school year. All of these charts were created through guided writing.
People & Culture: Bali, Indonesia
-Music
-Art
​
This is a lesson plan I, along with a group of Liberal Studies majors, put together for Music Literature. This lesson plan gives detailed instruction, information, and lists other resources for presenting the Balinese culture to students. This lesson should be done over the course of several days. In addition to the lesson, I also created a "passport" that can be used to assess the students' learning and that each student can save as a keepsake of their "trip to Bali."
