My Project

My project focuses on creating an engaging and organized second-grade classroom. Each resource is chosen to ignite their love for learning.

I adore my students' boundless curiosity and infectious enthusiasm!

The TPT gift card allows me to personalize learning with diverse, teacher-created materials. The colorful rug transforms our space into a vibrant, cozy reading nook, perfect for collaborative learning. Ziploc bags are fantastic for organizing manipulatives and art supplies, making transitions smoother. Sidewalk chalk encourages outdoor learning and creative expression, fostering gross motor skills. VELCRO® tape and laminating pouches will help create durable, interactive learning centers. The Bissell sweeper keeps our room tidy, promoting responsibility. Play-Doh sparks imaginative play and fine motor development, while the Scotch tape ensures projects are neatly assembled. Finally, the room mist creates a calming atmosphere, perfect for focus. These resources will empower my students to explore, create, and thrive!
