• I teach at all levels of mathematics in our middle school program: 6th-grade math, Pre-algebra, and Algebra 1. I strive to design and implement a differentiated math program that meets each student, where they are, through varied instructional methods and project-based learning. I have developed a repertoire of tools, resources, and skills to support students with mathematical learning differences. • I contribute to and support the development of our social-emotional curriculum through my role as an advisor. • I co-lead the diversity and inclusivity initiatives for the whole school.• I co-led the task force committee on Technology and Training to prepare for the 2020-2021 school year. I support and engage colleagues in implementation of technology skills during the transition to and implementation of remote learning.
