Hi there, teacher friends! I’m Erin. Before I was a first grade teacher, I grew up pretending I was one. I loved assigning homework to my stuffed animals, and I’d often enlist my younger siblings in my fanciful lesson plans. Now, my mission is to create resources and tools that evoke the joy of teaching and will delight students—all with the click of a button. I have my Master’s in Early Childhood Education, an English degree and Communications degree, a handful of years in first grade, Pre-K experience, and teaching licenses in a couple of states all under my belt. My passion in life is to create meaningful and engaging resources for your students that will save YOU time, energy, and resources. A win-win is what I aim for! Teaching has infinite challenges. If we can learn to work smarter and not harder, we can focus more on the rewards of teaching. I’m here to help! Here I am guest teaching in my friend Jen’s class. I am explaining the rules to a math game called Showdown.
