 Marilyn McCabe Acheson, Egremont Community School, Holstein ON.
Taught Grade 2 & 3. Favorite Copernicus Product is the Tabletop Easel.
I enjoy teaching the students when they are captivated about what they are doing at school. I use hockey stories at various reading levels for my students who are keen about hockey. Their writing and math activites relate to hockey too: reading results on line about the Leafs wins and losses and creating graphs about it, reading the schedules, etc.

Cheryl McCabe, Arthur Public School, Arthur, Ontario
Teaches JK/SK. Favorite Copernicus Product! Classroom Cruiser
For me, the joy in teaching is being able to share in the excitement of watching students develop the love of learning. Listening to them ask questions and watching them explore the environment around them is very gratifying. When they make connections and their faces beam well, that's priceless.
 Jessica Meacham, Southern Door Elementary, Northeast Wisconsin. Teaches First Grade.
We utilize our Expanded Royal Reading and Writing Center and our Leveled
Reading Book Browsing Cart every day!
Interacting with my students throughout the day is my favorite thing about teaching. I love listening to their stories and thoughts and seeing their reactions to what the day brings. I enjoy teaching them how to work together for the greater good of the whole and how to work as a team so we can accomplish our goals for the day.

 Yvonne Shelburne, Hayward Middle School Springfield, Ohio. Teaches grade 7 Math, National Board Certified Teacher.
Favorite Copernicus Product: S.O. S. Soft Organizer System
I love teaching math to middle school students! They still enjoy using math manipulatives, playing games, and engaging in friendly competitions, yet their developing minds are able to reason through more complex and abstract math concepts. My favorite part of a lesson is listening to students verbally explain their mathematical thinking to their peers.

 Megan A. Kunkel, Anthon Elementary, Uvalde, TX. Teaches 1st through 4th Grade Science Lab and Campus Technology Liaison.
Favorite Copernicus Product: Love the iRover and Pick-A-Pointer set
I love teaching because of the "lightbulb" moments, the second a child finally gets it is what teaching is all about. I also enjoy the
challenge of learning how to be an innovative teacher in our ever changing and technology driven world.
