My Project

I am a first-year teacher that is moving to Oklahoma to help impact the lives of kids. I am looking to make these kids feel valued and represented by including books and coloring supplies that show diversity. Diversity and social-emotional learning is a huge portion of my philosophy in education and I plan to fully implement that. Kids need to feel included and loved in the classroom. Learning can’t occur without that. With help in purchasing A Little Spot Favorites, plush toys, pencils, and positive affirmation cards, my classroom will be able to feel inclusive, safe, and accessible.
