About Me

My background includes 25 years of teaching in elementary grades, 3 years of selling real estate and 1 year as a Certified Pharmacy Technician. My family moved to Arizona from Ohio 5 years ago. Our oldest son's family lives 8 miles away so I get to see my 2 year old granddaughter a lot! My youngest son, a handicapped adult, lives with us. He is my hero. I have devoted more time to my writing these past 4 years.

CORDUROY BEAR by Don Freeman-Sorting Games with Buttons
Corduroy Bear books by Dan Freeman are favorites for young children. You can use the first book, CORDUROY, as a springboard to math activities which work on sorting and patterns. This would fit in great for a Bear Theme Week that you may be doing.
