My Project

I have a wonderful group of diverse learners in my class. We travel from phonics to reading, from math to writing, and we pause to renew and refresh our minds and bodies as we go. These breaks help my students reboot and refocus their energies.

These moments provide a necessary pause for my students to recommit to our learning goals.

Fidget toys help my students calm their spirit and reconnect to their learning environment. A tasty treat and fun favor is an additional boost for my students to enjoy.

Please help support my students on their learning journey!
