Summary

With graduation only a few short months away, I feel prepared and excited to enter the teaching workforce. Universal design for learning and the ABIDE principles are the frameworks I use to plan my units. I believe in providing a holistic, student centered education and recognize that a student's social emotional learning is as important as their academic learning. Place based and play based are my favorite teaching styles. Although I am open to any opportunity, I feel my skills as a teacher shine brightest when teaching early years.
