My Project

This project is for math, science, STEM, and ela materials. It is filled with puzzles to challenge the students, building materials, math games to practice fluency, phonics resources, and science materials to explore concepts hands on. These students are such sweet children who deserve the world and I thank you for taking interest in their futures.

School opens unlimited doors for students and these materials will help make learning fun and meaningful!

My goal is that the students will love learning and therefore create healthy educational habits. I can't wait to present these materials to them and watch them soar. They have big big futures ahead. We can't thank you enough for supporting our wonderful first grade in all their endeavors.
