I am here for you... your advocate! Please let me know how I may assist you with curriculum instruction and planning.

Livebinders (example of a pathfinder) are excellent ways to organize websites for units of instruction. Click on the link above and check out all of the teaching resources in my Livebinder. One tab is labeled "Science Livebinders." Click here for examples of pathfinders for specific units of instruction. If you are interested in creating pathfinders such as Livebinder or Symballoo, please let me know and I would be happy to help you get started. The possibilities are endless.
