Lauren says: “Hello, I am Lauren, or ‘Miss M’! Growing up in Upstate New York, I was a dancer. I took the opportunity to help teach 3- and 4-year-olds dance when I was in high school; I loved it so much that I decided to pursue teaching. From this experience, I learned the importance of integrating interests such as music into education to keep students engaged. As my extensive lesson plans and materials grew, I created a website for others to access. I am proud to have created a website featuring a variety of materials which others may access for free. Art is also a huge part of my life; I tend to intertwine art into activities so students can understand content using hands-on methods. Hand created posters with extensive visuals often decorate my classroom. I have also been known to draw a coloring sheet for kids, to bring their interests to life. Accessibility is essential in my teaching practice, and I believe everyone should have access to knowledge. I find that one common thread many of us have is our love for animals. Although I do not have a pet of my own, I enjoy hanging out with animals and learning about their quirks. One day, I hope to rescue an animal, either a cat or a dog. I cannot wait to aid more students in being successful in the classroom, so they can thrive!
