My Project

After 25 years of teaching middle school, I’m embarking on a brand-new adventure—teaching ELA to 4th and 5th graders! While I don’t know exactly what I’ll love about my new students just yet, I do know I’m excited to go back in the classroom with a fresh purpose and a new crew of learners ready to take off.

Like Woody and Buzz, every student needs the right tools to help them grow, create, and succeed.

That’s why this project includes essential supplies like pencils, markers, glue sticks, organization bins, and headphones—everything young readers and writers need to stay engaged and take their learning to infinity and beyond!

With your support, my students won’t have to worry about having the basics—they’ll be equipped from day one.
