Welcome to Me 

Online Collaboration

 


 

 

 

Who are we and what do we teach?

Erik is a fourth grade teacher in the South Western School District. Prior to teaching 4th grade, I was a primary learning support teacher for five years. In addition to these experiences, I was a kindergarten teacher in the Central Bucks School District for one year.

 

Amy is currently a third grade teacher in Central York School District. I have been employed with the district for fifteen years and have taught 2nd and 3rd grade (general education) and 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade (learning support). This year I have had the pleasure of looping from 2nd to 3rd grade with my class.

How we got started?

Amy and Erik met during the Keystone Summit in the summer of 2007. After spending an enjoyable week together, we decided to try colloborating on different projects with our classes. We started off small and have big plans for the remainder of this school year.
