Curriculum

Below is a summary of the different curriculum, Benchmark assessments, and interventions I have used throughout my teaching experiences.  I have learned and adopted the different programs used in each district.  I feel my range of experiences makes me knowledgeable of many instructional programs and techniques, so I can differentiate instruction and progress monitor to assess my students’ learning and growth.
