Hello and thank you for visiting Common Core Kingdom. I wanted to be a teacher since I can remember. I taught second through fifth grades in Florida and Rhode Island schools for eight years. My colleagues and I struggled to find standards based resources. I created Common Core Kingdom as a way to share the resources that I created to help my own students succeed. Many of my resources are leveled. Leveled passages make it easy for teachers to scaffold their instruction and differentiate lessons. I am always looking for new ways to engage students and help every student achieve their best. I live in Ponte Vedra, Florida with my husband, daughter, son, and two dogs.
