Leanne's Filing Cabinet

I have 33 years’ experience as a classroom and specialist teacher (R-12). I am passionate about young people’s learning and as a result I have decided to create teaching resources for the over worked and time poor teacher. My resources are designed to download, print and use for students who are either developing the foundation skills in literacy or those who are experiencing difficulty and need some extra activities to assist in filling the gaps in their learning.

MY TEACHING STYLE

I believe when students are enjoying what they are doing they have a better chance of learning and developing new concepts. I therefore provide many activities that are available for self assessment - ('How did I go today?' type). This consolidates and lets them their practise skills. Through this approach the student learns to form displays. These activities also then can transcend into parent sharing items. Often students from different backgrounds, or who are experiencing delays or difficulties with their learning are left with uninteresting activities to repeat time after time. I strive to provide activities that support a differentiated curriculum and allow these students to access and practice concepts when they are ready.
