Welcome!

My name is Adassa Pacheco and I am the creator of PEMDASSA! I am a math teacher in Mesa, Arizona where I focus on ensuring student's learning, and making an easier life to other math teachers.

I follow the teaching practices that Peter Liljedahl studied and emphasized in his book called "Building Thinking Classroom in Mathematics". I use his ideas of random groups of three, working on whiteboards, and plan on implementing more of his ideas into this year's classroom.

I am in my second year of teaching 7th grade mathematics and an addition of 7th grade honors mathematics into this upcoming school year! I went to Arizona State University to get my degree in Elementary Education and received my certification in the middle grades mathematics! I plan on gaining more certification for higher levels of Math. My plans for the future are to focus on my Teachers Pay Teachers store and to go back into school to receive my masters in creating curriculum.
