School District #20

Fruitvale , British Columbia Canada

I have been an elementary school teacher for over 20 years. I taught primary for 12 years and then taught in the intermediate grades for the next decade. Over the past 4 years I have increasingly been responsible for the curriculum and learning needs of my district. I also teach the UBC West Kootenay Teacher Education Program -Math Methods Course (MAED 320) My area of strength is numeracy. I give workshops in teacher and student math anxiety. I specialize in helping teachers and administrators understand the reasons for the math curriculum changes and introduce them to the lesson format and assessment techniques now asked for. Alternate strategies? Meaningful problem solving? Learn tho
