Little Friends Need Big Vocabularies!

Help me give my students words! Our Early Childhood Special Education friends gain so much language from books and songs. Thanks for helping us get our little friends ready for big school (and life)!

My Project

After 17+ years out of the classroom and 5 years out of education, I've returned to my first love: teaching Early Childhood Special Education. After giving away all of the books and teaching materials I collected throughout my teaching career, I've been slowly building my new classroom library and teaching materials out of my own pocket.

We know our little friends need big words to be successful in life and school, and books create such great language and learning opportunities!

I am having a blast with my friends, and I want to help them get all of the words and skills they need before they're off to "big school."

Thanks so much for your consideration and for helping me and my team make early childhood just a little more magical for our little friends.
