I taught in three (3) different schools in the Provo School District. I began teaching K-6 students in a science prep class. I taught 4th grade for 4 years, 5/6 combination classes for 6 years with one of these years being 1/2 day as a 2nd grade teacher and 1/2 day as a 5/6 combination class teacher. For two years I was the Literacy Coordinator, focusing on this position in the A.M., and then teaching a 5/6 combination class in the P.M.
