My Project

The start of a new school year is exciting for both students and teachers. I am excited to meet my 100 new 8th graders in mid August.

Organization and wellness is key to a successful year.

My students have binders that they keep all their social studies papers in. They need an electric hole punch to make getting papers into their binder easier and neat. A neat binder makes studying so much easier! In South Carolina we are constantly having an allergy season. Kleenex are a staple in our classroom to combat runny noses!
