E-Resume of Holly K. Anthony Hello. My name is Holly Anthony and this is my e-resume. The following pages outline my teaching philosophy and some of my qualifications.

Don't tell anyone but . . . I’m actually her sister-in-law’s cat Goldberry. She wanted you to have a warm and fuzzy feeling – so here I am! As you can see, I do try to stay on top of the news, but because I don’t have any thumbs, it’s difficult to turn the pages.

Literacy (cont.) BALANCED INTEGRATED I use whole group instruction to introduce major concepts and ideas and to help determine ability groupings. I use small group/individual instruction to accommodate different learning styles, to scaffold and provide additional support for struggling students, and to provide additional depth in order to challenge high achievers. INTEGRATED I incorporate literacy into and support the content areas of science and social studies by using the curriculum to help teach the following: Expository text features Identifying important facts Note taking Writing to inform Fact-based fiction writing

Numeracy Instructional Approach: In concert with traditional approaches, I support an investigational methodology to learning mathematical principals, multiple methods to an outcome, as well as a spiraling approach to concept reinforcement and mastery. I utilize the following methods to teach number sense and computational skills: New and major concepts introduced through whole-class instruc-tion Supported in-class investigation and practice through small group and/or individual instruction Self-paced progress toward completion of required work At home reinforcement for all students at appropriate level More challenging materials and/or accelerated pacing for high achieving students

Differentiation Differentiation is assisting all students to achieve their highest potential in their own way. I strive to meet the student at his/her level and work to ensure that he/she demonstrates the full extent of his/her abilities. In addi-tion to the methods identified earlier, I utilize the follow-ing strategies to help accomplish this goal: Draw from the grade above to challenge high achieving stu-dents and from the grade below to accommodate struggling students Provide students with alternative methods of demonstrat-ing understanding (e.g., oral, artistic, or performance) Adjust the quantity or the depth of the material Multi-ability grouping and peer mentoring
