My Project

Who doesn’t like to be loved on and given an extra special little gift just for them on their birthday! I would love for your support in building a loving, supportive and kind classroom. When a student feels safe and loved, they will feel free to take chances, make mistakes and learn. One way I would love to do that this upcoming school year is to be able to give the students in my class a fun little gift on their special day! With your support I will be able to build positive self worth in all of my students.
