Hello friends! My name is Laura. I am married to an amazing guy and we have one son, Evan. At my 20 week ultrasound, we learned that Evan has Spina Bifida and when I was 26 weeks pregnant, I had fetal surgery to repair his open spine. I have taught life skills (severe disabilities) for 9 years at a middle school in Utah. 
I have a dual degree in elementary education and special education with a severe emphasis, and a master's degree in Special Education with a concentration in Transition from School to Adulthood. Because of my background in regular education, I have always been a very academics-driven teacher but I believe in teaching academics in a functional way. I'm all about helping teachers find the balance between academics and functional skills in the classroom.
I have been selling on TpT since 2012 and I'm hooked, both as a buyer and seller. I love being able to share resources that have helped me and have been successful in my classroom. You can find me here:
