About me: <p>I am a retired elementary teacher with <strong>31 years of classroom experience.</strong> I began my teaching journey at Southwestern Oklahoma State University, where I earned my <strong>B.S. in Elementary Education.</strong> Over the years, I taught <strong>kindergarten, 1st grade, and 6th grade.</strong></p> <p>During my career, I was honored to be a <strong>Teacher of the Year</strong> candidate three times and to receive the title twice. My teaching focused strongly on <strong>English Language Arts, early literacy, phonemic awareness, and math,</strong> always keeping in mind <strong>Common Core, TEKS, and Oklahoma Academic Standards (OAS).</strong></p> <p>Now in retirement, I enjoy creating interactive <strong>Boom™ Cards designed for kindergarten and 1st grade students.</strong> My resources are built with the same care and dedication I brought to my classroom, helping teachers and families support young learners.</p> <p>Beyond education, I cherish life with my husband of 42 years, my two grown children, and six beautiful grandchildren.</p>
