First Year Career Changing Teacher

Help me give my students an individualized learning experience with small group optimization

  • $1,263 goal

My Project

After working for seven years for the NFL and New York Mets, I decided I wanted to do something more influential with my career. I quit my job and committed to becoming triple certified in Gen-Ed, Special-Ed and TESOL.

These materials will help complete my first classroom and I will use them to pull small groups for a catered learning experience for all students.

The easel will supplement learning, the kidney table and tabletop easel will be used for small group instruction as well as MTSS work across different levels.
