  Math Teacher/Team Leader/Curriculum Coord./Equity, Diversity, Inclusion Team/Building Leadership

  While at High Plains, I taught 6th grade and 8th grade math and Algebra I. Because it was a smaller campus, I had different grade levels in each class. Due to their varied abilities, I had to differentiate my lessons extensively. I created lessons that meet the student's needs, scaffolding lower standards while preparing them for the next year and whatever grade-level CMAS the students may take.During the 2021-2022 year, I taught Algebra I and ELD. As an ELD teacher, I gave instruction designed specifically for English language learners to develop their listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills in English.

  I currently work for Big Ideas Learning as a National Mathematics Consultant. To be successful in my position, I had to become familiar with the multitude of products that BIL offers, not only from the teacher's perspective but also from the students.
