DC Everest School District
3rd gr. teacher
Wausau, WI
Sarah Merz is currently a 3rd grade classroom teacher at D.C. Everest School District for K-5 Mulit-age. I am a district trainer in Understanding by Design (UbD), a 21st Century Classroom teacher, and a district curriculum designer and writer in English Language Arts and content area courses. In addition to having presented at WEMTA in the past, I have lead professional development opportunities and training's, both in and out of district. Outside of teaching, I love to hang out with my two boys and take in life's adventures! We are a family that enjoys gardening, camping, traveling, and visiting with family and friends. My guilty pleasures include surfing Pinterest (I'm secretly addicted...), buying the daily deals for my Kindle so I can build the huge library that I've always dreamed of (to bad it's online!!), surfing Web 2.0 tools (there's always something new and I like to keep on top of the tidal wave), and READING!
