       NUMERACY in our classroom
"Education is not the learning of facts, but the training of the mind to think."

I have been a teacher with the Grande Prairie Catholic School Division since 2005.  I am currently the Numeracy Lead Teacher for our district.  I am passionate about learning and teaching mathematics.  I want to help teachers and students gain confidence in their numeracy skills, most importantly problem-solving, collaboration, and perseverance.  I recently earned my Master's Degree in Education from Simon Fraser University. What I really learned is how to think and how to learn.  I want to help teachers help students learn to think, to take risks, to gain confidence in themselves as learners.  I am passionate about teaching through problem solving and learning collaboratively.
