I’m Sarah Skiba, an experienced educator with over 8 years of teaching at both the elementary and middle school levels. I currently specialize in middle school English Language Arts, where I focus on fostering critical thinking, strong literacy skills, and a love of reading in my students. As a mom to two adventurous young boys and a wife to a fellow educator, I’m passionate about creating engaging, meaningful resources that make teaching more effective and enjoyable. Whether you're looking for time-saving tools, creative lessons, or thoughtful activities, my store is here to support busy teachers like you!
My style blends structure with creativity—grounded in clear academic routines while allowing space for exploration, discussion, and personal growth. I believe in building strong relationships with students, creating a safe and engaging environment where they feel seen and supported.
My instruction is rooted in literacy and critical thinking, and I strive to connect content to students' lives and interests. Whether through hands-on activities, literature discussions, or skill-based practice, I aim to make learning meaningful and accessible for all learners. I also incorporate my experience as a parent in the attempt to create a balanced perspective in the classroom.
