My Project

My students are amazing kids! They are inquisitive, kind, and always ready to learn.

I want to supply my students with materials that will foster growth.

Teachers Pay Teachers gift cards help allow me to purchase activities and crafts to enhance their learning. First grade is a pivotal year for ELA and having additional materials during small group will be helpful. Kids stay more focused when they are moving things around.

Using mentor books to help students understand new topics is extremely useful. I try to gather diverse books so kids are always learning about different topics that lend to great class discussions. I also try to put new books in my classroom. The menus provide a way to put mini anchor charts in each child’s desk.
