I began my career as a classroom teacher in the primary grades,
followed by several years as an administrator. My interest in early reading led
me to complete a master's degree in reading with an emphasis on the individual
needs of children. I followed that with doctoral work in educational psychology
with an emphasis on how young children understand what they read.
I now teach the kindergarten methods courses for
initial licensure students and for those who are adding kindergarten
endorsement to their elementary license. I also teach early literacy
courses.
Selected courses taught:
- CI 5254—Kindergarten Methods
- CI 5415—Literacy Development for the Primary Grades
- CI 5254 & CI 5190—Kindergarten Methods and Directed
Study for kindergarten licensure endorsement (offered Summer
2007 and Summer 2008)
