My Project

Inclusion is such an important part of my teaching philosophy. These materials will help my students become successful learners.

Our state is a melting pot of cultures, robust in various languages and ethnicities.

COVID-19 definitely put a damper on the education system. We are still recovering from the affects of online learning. These writing tablets will help my kindergarteners take charge of their learning by providing opportunities for empowerment in our classroom. Labels and organizers will allow students to become more independent and organized, bulletin paper and clear pockets will be used to hang student work around the classroom, and doodle boards will enable students to explore their imaginations!
