My Project

First graders come to school each day filled with enthusiasm and excitement for learning. Their enthusiasm is infectious and teaching first graders is both an exciting and joyful experience. Throughout the year, they make tremendous growth both academically and socially, which makes it an exhilarating grade to teach.

This project includes a File cabinet

and Book Binding Machine which will give students the opportunity to create their own books throughout the year. This guides the children to exercise their creative minds and will help to build the confidence and discipline my students need to succeed in all areas of life. With your help, our classroom will be filled with powerful books and the necessary supplies needed for a successful school year.
