My Project

I am coming back into teaching after taking three years off and I’m starting at a brand new school. I want my kids to realize that the magic happens in the classroom and that you don’t have to be sitting in a desk to learn. I want them to see that whether you’re on the floor or in a chair or in a desk .That the magic can still happen and that they are magical and that they deserve the best learning environment. This will bring magic to the school.
