Riddle Rewards
I created "Riddle Rewards" as a reinforcement for positive classroom behavior. When students follow instructions, work cooperatively, help one another, or go above and beyond to do their best, they will earn "Riddle Rewards" which can later be cashed in for a special prize.
Bamboozled!
Bamboozled is a review game that I created for the students. It can be used with material from any subject, in any grade level.

Philosophies
Integrating the ArtsIntegrating art in the classroom strengthens students’ cognitive and creative skills, helps them become better problem solvers, teaches them to be open-minded, builds self-confidence, allows students to work cooperatively and keeps students engaged and interested in the material. To be the best teachers we can be and help our students reach their fullest potential, it is vital to incorporate the arts into the classroom.
