Hi, I’m Alma.
I’m a Texas educator in my 13th year in elementary education. I’ve taught kindergarten, first, fifth, and sixth grade, worked in the United States and overseas, and served as an assistant principal.
Teaching is a huge part of my life, but it is not my entire identity. This is where I share what helps in the classroom and beyond.
