From the Cart to the Classroom

Help me give my students students engaging and effective learning resources by providing a Teachers Pay Teachers gift card!

My Project

Every teacher has that one shopping cart full of dream resources just waiting to come to life in the classroom—mine is packed with engaging lessons, hands-on activities, and creative games that would make learning even more fun for my second graders! With a Teachers Pay Teachers (TPT) gift card, I can grab amazing materials that bring our lessons to the next level without spending hours making everything from scratch.

Whether it’s a math game that turns problem-solving into a competition or a reading activity that sparks excitement, the right resources make all the difference.

Instead of just worksheets, I want to fill our days with interactive, engaging learning that keeps my students eager to dive in.

With your support, I can take those must-have resources from my cart and bring them straight into our classroom! From fun centers to skill-boosting printables, these materials will help my students grow while making learning feel like play. Thank you for helping me turn my wishlist into reality!
