I am entering my 20th year of teaching 7th grade Language Arts. I may be crazy, but 7th graders still have a lot of enthusiasm and are willing to go along with my hairbrained ideas. After dabbling in personalization for half a year, I went all-in this year. I have grown by leaps and bounds within a short period of time; learning to adapt my lessons on the fly to meet the needs of my students and even gamifying my class a few different times. I'm still just beginning, but I am excited to share what I've done and learn from you about ways to improve as an educator and learner.
