My Students

Welcome to my team! Once you become part of our team, you will find we are 48 energetic learners who love to learn more than just about anything!

We enjoy new books, hands-on projects, singing, dancing, and most of all growing our brains.

Daily you can find us laughing, being kind, thoughtful, and helpful. We take pride in everything we do, from walking down the hallway, keeping track of our supplies, cleaning our room with cleaning dance parties, and completing our work to the best of our abilities.

When you join our team, we will welcome you with a big hug and think of you like family.

My Project

VersaTiles helps students build literacy proficiency in a challenging, rewarding way. For over 40 years teachers have relied on VersaTiles for independent practice and for use in small groups, rotations, centers, and stations. Help my students by seamlessly integrating skills practice into our reading routine.

These kits include 24 student activity books (4 copies of each title, 32-pages each), 8 answer cases, and 1 teacher guide.

They cover literacy foundations - phonics and fluency, language - conventions, language - vocabulary, literature - comprehension skills, science informational text - comprehension skills, and social studies informational text - comprehension skills.

Our laminated stations are not holding up to the sanitation necessary to keep us safe and healthy. VersaTiles will offer a more permanent alternative that will hold up to our cleaning procedures.

VersaTiles offer an alternative to traditional skills practice, creates a safe learning environment that increases student confidence, and low-prep classroom solution. VersaTiles Literacy Classroom Kits are aligned to State and National Standards!
