Hi, I'm Shelly.
I am so glad you are here! I am a former 5th grade teacher who loves creating educational resources to help upper elementary teachers and homeschooling families around the world!
About Me
I have been married to my best friend and love of my life, Aric, for 29 years. We have raised 4 sons and although I have some gray hair to show for it, I wouldn’t have it any other way. I am Pennsylvania-grown and now a Wyoming girl for life.
My loves include being creative, baking, cookie-decorating, Diet Coke (fountain drinks, of course), colorful Inkjoy pens, fun notebooks and notepads, camping, and spreading kindness wherever I can.
After teaching in the upper elementary grades for over 23 years, I left the classroom to focus on creating and helping teachers around the world with fun and helpful teaching ideas and resources. My work schedule is crazy and mixed up, but I love every, single minute of it!
Experience
After graduating from Brigham Young University with a B.S. in Elementary Education, I went on to teach in the upper elementary grades for over 23 years. During that time, I also earned my M.A. in Educational Leadership (P.L.C.) and an E.S.L. Certification. I have a love for learning and believe that teaching should be as hands-on, fun and engaging as possible. I am passionate about helping teachers by providing educational resources that will minimize their stress-load while maximizing the learning in their classrooms.
