As a preschool teacher I taught the children the alphabet, numbers, colors, shapes, simple science, geography, and history.
I was responsible for planning a curriculum and learning activities through play. This year I was given the opportunity to teach the Abekka curriculum, which i loved very much.
I also taught the children music. I play several instruments and read music as well. Those instruments include: Piano, Ukulele, Clarinet, Dulcimer, Mandolin.
The last Five summers I did a summer of fun curriculum where we explored outer space. I also taught the children about other countries, while allowing them to try food from that country which I let them help make.

In my spare time i love to make incredible things out of cardboard boxes. I've made my children a giant authentic looking castle to play in as well as a realistic looking gingerbread play house, a Polar Express Train, and a Jukebox for a Valentines Day party. I also love to play my instruments and make personal craft items for friends and family.
One of my passions is spending Saturday's to organize my room and plan activities, as well as decorate and plan seasonal parties. Other extra curricular activities I have been involved in over the years is children's choir and AWANA. I also sing in my church choir.
