My Project

I love that my students come to school each day full of energy, curiosity, and the desire to grow. They are resilient, creative, and diverse learners who thrive when given the right tools and environment to succeed. Many of my students benefit from a structured, calming, and organized classroom to help them stay focused and engaged.

The resources in this project are carefully chosen to support learning in a variety of ways.

Privacy folders will give students the quiet personal space they need during tests and independent work, helping them build focus and confidence. Chair pockets will help keep materials organized right at their seats, minimizing lost time and supporting students in taking ownership of their supplies.

Fidget bands are a gentle, silent way for students with extra energy or sensory needs to self-regulate without disrupting others. The colorful mini notebooks and smiley-topped pencils will make writing activities more engaging and accessible, giving every student the joy of having their own special tools. Classroom caddies will help with group material sharing, keeping our space neat and collaborative. And finally, the hanging pocket organizer will support classroom routines, whether for storing phones, managing supplies, or organizing student numbers.

Together, these resources will help me create a classroom that is calm, supportive, and full of opportunities for all students to succeed.
