Hey teachers!
We’re Claire and Terry, two Ontario teachers with a combined 40+ years of teaching experience! Claire is the upper elementary teacher and Terry specializes in middle school.
We believe in creating engaging yet meaningful learning opportunities that build problem-solving and critical thinking in our students. Memorization and mimicking just aren’t cutting it in today’s world.
BUT we believe teachers need a life outside the classroom too!
Our goal is to help you with teaching tips and resources focused on Language Arts, Math and Assessment from grades 4-8.

WHAT TEACHERS ARE SAYING…
“This resource is amazing. It has been a huge time-saver and lifeline for me as a teacher and it is engaging for the students. I find it very comprehensive and that I get a lot of assessment data from following it. I’ve also appreciated the ability to modify documents as needed for my IEP students. This is seriously a lifesaver!!!”
