Bio and Resume
Thank you for visiting my page! I am currently an English II teacher in TX. This is my first year to teach high school, so I am nervous and excited about this new opportunity! I am certified to teach EC-8 Generalist and 8-12 ELAR. I have previously taught kindergarten, 4th grad self contained, 5th grade self contained, 6th grade social studies, 6th grade ELAR, 7th grade writing, and 8th grad ELAR. I love my job and I love helping kids of all ages learn and grow. I am married with one step-daughter and four dogs. When I am not working, I love to read and cook!

I chose to make a quiz in Kahoot!. I chose this because it is very user friendly and useful. As an educator, it is always convenient to have something that is quick and easy to operate. All you have to do is sign-in and click create. If you do not have the time or ability to create, you can also search a bank of already made Kahoot!’s. This assessment tool provides varied types of questions from true/false to short answer. I have used Kahoot! In the past, and I can tell you that the students love this platform. They have a say in the screen name that shows, and it fosters a healthy sense of competition in the classroom. Students can work as an individual or as a team. Kahoot! Is also great for teachers because you know immediately who understood the concept and who needs some more help. It will also let you download quiz results that you can use as a grade if you are needing extra grades in your classroom. I highly recommend this for a bell ringer, exit ticket, or for when your lesson needs to be a little bit longer because things did not go as anticipated. Please see below for a sample Kahoot!.
