The Story Behind Running Turtle Resources
Teaching was always been part of my journey. I was the kid who asked for a “Teacher Kit” for Christmas. The one who made their little sister “play school” on the weekends. My first job as a teenager was babysitting for the families in our neighborhood.
It was no surprise that I pursued a career in education and spent 11 amazing years as an Elementary School Teacher.
Fast Forward to 2016 when I took on a new role- Mom. By February 2020, I had 3 kids under 3 years old. I knew it was time to take a step back from the classroom but still wanted to support teachers and students. It made me wonder, “Is there a way to do both?”
Running Turtle Resources was my solution. As a busy mom of 3 and a teacher, I often tell others that I feel like a “Running Turtle”- working hard but not always getting to where I want to go quickly. I wanted to design resources to save my fellow “running turtles” time, help them to differentiate their instruction and engage their students in learning.
