Hello! My name is Nicole Schoonerman, welcome to Cup of Literacy! I am a kindergarten teacher of 4 years and just fulfilled my Literacy Master of Education (M.Ed.) degree. Throughout my time teaching, completing my degree, and participating in professional development opportunities, I have developed an understanding and attentiveness to effective literacy instructional practices.

If you are dedicated to delivering purposeful and engaging literacy instruction (me too!), you’re in the right place. Cup of Literacy is my passion project where I will be sharing blog posts, resources, and all things literacy. I’m so happy you’re here and hope you will come on this journey of literacy learning with me!
