I have been in education as a teacher since 1993, and have been teaching 6th grade language arts for the past seven years at Heights middle school in Farmington, New Mexico.   I taught special education for the first seven years I was at Heights.  I have a master’s degree in Special Education from New Mexico Highlands University and am certified as a special education teacher as well as being certified to teach K-8 in New Mexico.  I have taught in several other schools as well in various parts of the country.  I was a math teacher leader and also worked as a reading specialist. As an English language arts teacher in a district with a one to one initiative, I have used technology extensively in my classroom.  This use of technology will help me with the ability to flip my classroom
