Hello and Welcome! I’m Kristin, the creator behind Rhody Girl Resources. I am an online and classroom teacher, boy mom, and book lover. I love to collaborate, create, and learn.
I seem to bounce coast to coast with my teaching! I graduated from the University of North Carolina-Wilmington with my degree in Elementary Education. I was fortunate enough to get a job straight out of school and loved my 3 years teaching in North Carolina. Next, I moved to Arizona, where I spent 10 years in the classroom and earned my Masters degree in Reading Curriculum and Instruction. Most recently, I’ve headed back east to Rhode Island. Since returning to Rhode Island I have added online teaching to my repertoire.
My goal for this page is to interact and share. I am always looking for ideas and would love to connect and support others through freebies, blog posts, resources, Instagram, Facebook, and emails!
