About Ms. SimpkinsI am so excited and blessed to begin my seventh year here at The Creek! Last year I had a great year teaching and being eighth grade team leader and I am eager to continue that as well as continue being Math Department Head. I hope this year will be just as much if not more success as my last six.
I graduated in May 2013 from The Florida State University with majors in Mathematics and Secondary Math Education through the FSU-Teach program. I am currently pursuing my Master's Degree in Curriculum and Instruction in Mathematics. I prefer to use inquiry-based strategies in my classroom. Although students will participate in traditional learning practices such as notetaking, much of the work in my course will ask the students to answer questions in a creative manner through group problem-solving and through investigation. |
