About Me

Hello, I’m Sarah Casady! I am a blogger from Minnesota, the author of Kindergarten Smarts- a Kindergarten Teacher Blog, a preschool teacher, and a Teachers Pay Teachers contributor. I hope my website can be helpful to you. I am constantly looking for new ideas to add to my growing site! I moved from Arizona after living there for 13 years to the beautiful state of Minnesota. After teaching kindergarten for 5 years, I took some time off to be with my girls. I am now back in the classroom as a 5’s preschool teacher! I truly enjoy when children to make connections of learning through play.

In my personal life, I have a wonderful husband, Ted, 2 daughters (Reagan and Jordan) who are 12 months apart, and a Goldendoodle, Jackson. We love to travel, attend sporting events (Go Cubs!), get together with friends, and go camping.

Since teaching at some of the most rigorous schools in AZ, I have taken with me some great teaching strategies that I love to share with my followers. I am here to provide you with teaching resources and strategies that I have found to be successful for me in the classroom. Teaching isn’t an easy profession, so I’m here to help as much as possible 🙂

I opened my Teachers Pay Teachers store in the spring of 2012. I have been a creative soul since childhood and took that into my adult life as I earned my undergrad degree in graphic design before getting my Masters in Education. Teachers Pay Teachers opened my creative world! I was able to combine two passions of mine, designing and teaching, into one!
