My Project

We are ready for an exciting year of learning, and your support can make it even more inviting and inspiring! I moved classrooms and I am hoping to add fresh bulletin board décor to create a vibrant, welcoming space that celebrates student work and encourages creativity. I also need a new class rug to provide a comfortable, cozy spot for group lessons, read-alouds, and class discussions. These additions will help foster a positive learning environment where students feel engaged and connected every day. Thank you for helping me make my classroom a place where students love to learn!
