I believe that the Common Core standards provide an excellent framework for fostering critical thinking and problem-solving skills. My approach centers on making learning meaningful and accessible by connecting lessons to real-world situations. I design lessons that encourage inquiry, collaboration, and creativity, helping students build confidence and develop skills that go beyond the classroom. By using hands-on activities, interdisciplinary projects, and technology, I ensure that every student is engaged and supported in reaching their full potential.
Inspiring young learners through engaging literacy activities.
With 8 years of experience implementing Common Core standards in elementary education, including 5 years in the USA and 3 years at my current school, I have strengthened my ability to design engaging and standards-aligned instruction. My work has focused on developing Math and English unit plans that integrate inquiry-based approaches, hands-on learning, and interdisciplinary connections.
Used formative and summative assessments to monitor student growth.
Integrated technology, such as math apps and storytelling tools, to enhance engagement.
Collaborated with colleagues to ensure cohesive curriculum alignment.
