Hey Teacher Friend!
Whether you are fresh out of the college box and in a brand new classroom or you are a veteran teacher who’s been doing this a while, I’m glad you’re here. I have tons of teaching tips and resources that I’m excited to share with you. Below you will find all sorts of educational goodies… my Teachers Pay Teachers Store (full of Middle Grade ELA resources), some video playlists containing teaching tips and reading recommendations, information on school visits, a few blog posts and more. Each piece of content has been designed not only to engage your learners in fun and exciting ways, but also to make your very tough job a bit easier.
If there ever anything you need for your classroom or a question you have, head over to the Post Office and email me. I am happy to help in any way I can. :)
Finally, if you’d like to get 5 GOOD THINGS for Teachers delivered to your email inbox twice a month (on the first and third Thursday) click here to sign up. Bonus, when you join, you’ll get a free full color motivational quote poster set to decorate your classroom.
Happy Teaching!

Teaching Videos
Find a huge bank of helpful videos on my YouTube Channel, Learning with the Word Nerd. Click the category that most interests you and then settle in to listen and learn!
My blog is mostly dedicated to the topic of writing, but occasionally I share goodies for teachers. Check out these blog posts specifically for educators that share book recommendations and teaching strategies or click here to view the full list of education-related blog posts.
One of my favorite things in the entire world is visiting schools and sharing my word nerd passion with students. If I can convince others to love reading and writing just a little bit more than they did before they met me, I consider it a success! For school visits I can do large or small group interactive presentations for students and also professional development presentations for educators. Head over to the Post Office and send me an email so we can get started on planning a perfect day of word nerd learning for everyone in your school.
