Class Experience

Beginning with story time, I will read "Sir Cumference and the Off-the-Charts Dessert" by Cindy Neuschwander. Then with a graphing video clip, we will examine the importance of mathematical graphs. We will discuss what a circle and bar graph are, why they are formed, and why it is important to understand them. The students will then create their own version of a bar graph and circle graph from data. Finally, I will provide a link enrichment activity for after class to continue the study of graphs. This is a great introduction into graphing, or a good review, for anyone who needs it.

Hello from Texas! Although I am currently residing in Texas, we move quite often and that has allowed me to have many different types of career experiences. I have tutored privately and through well-known organizations; taught in the public school classroom setting with a self-contained classroom (including 4th grade and Texas History); substituted and interned in private school classroom settings; instructed at the community college level (History); assisted with museum operations; and homeschooled my three munchkins. I have worked with early education all the way up to the community college level. My Bachelors is in childhood education with a Master's in American History.
