Anna Hanrahan
Heyworth Elementary School
Enrichment Teacher
Heyworth, IL
This is my 18th year in education, (all former 17 years spent in 3rd grade) but my first year as my school's enrichment teacher. I designed our program which we call "LEAP" (Learning Enrichment Activities Program) and it is made up primarily of STEAM and Makerspace methods of learning. Kindergarteners through sixth graders come through my room on 9 week rotations. I am also the gifted teacher. I am always looking for new and innovative tools, lessons and products to incorporate into my program.
