Virginia, United States

I create and implement instructional programs, learning strategies and activities that meet the needs, interests and abilities of students. In doing so, I use appropriate learning materials, multi-media and computer technology to provide a diverse and stimulating learning environment and adapt curricula to provide differentiating instruction. I collaborate with other educators, administration to ensure complete, cross-curricular lessons and assessments and foster partnerships and positive, constructive communication with parents/guardians. My accomplishments here include:●Initiation of a Capstone project that incorporated problem-based learning (PBL) into established lessons and associated assessments – students involved in the project achieved a 9% increase on established summative assessments. ●Transition of our science curriculum from International Baccalaureate (IB) to Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS); organized topics, aligning and sequencing NGSS standards with the appropriate grade level.
