I’m an elementary teacher and administrator creating simple, effective ELA resources that work in real classrooms. Everything here is designed to save time and be easy to implement.

The Edgar behind Elementary Edgar

I’m Edgar, and I believe great teaching starts with great curriculum. With over 20 years in education, my experience spans upper elementary (Grades 3-5), 7th-grade geography, and several years as a Director of Curriculum & PD/Principal of Teaching and Learning. My journey through public, private, and international schools has given me a unique perspective, but my greatest strength remains curriculum design. Every resource you find here has been built not just by a teacher, but by a curriculum leader. You’ll find highly refined, rigorous, and classroom-proven materials designed to save you prep time and drive guaranteed student growth. I’ve done the deep design work—you focus on the joy of teaching!
