My Project

I love that my students come to school every day full of energy, curiosity, and the desire to connect with one another. They are learning not just how to read and write, but how to be part of a classroom family—how to share, listen, stay organized, and treat each other with kindness.

The books in this project, like What If Everybody Did That?

and Our Class is a Family, help my students learn important social-emotional lessons in ways they can understand and relate to. These stories spark meaningful conversations about empathy, responsibility, and teamwork.

The file organizers and stackable crates will help us keep our classroom tidy and calm, giving students easy access to materials and a sense of ownership over their space. The glue sticks are a daily essential, especially for our hands-on learners who thrive when they can cut, paste, and create.

Each of these resources helps build the kind of structured, caring environment where my students feel safe, supported, and ready to learn.
