My Project

I want my students to feel happy, healthy, and included.

Books with diverse characters will help us understand each other.

Books with characters who are deaf or heard of hearing will mirror our school community. The frisbees will keep us active and healthy while promoting team work. The colorful pens and sharpeners will keep us happily working all year long.

All this will communicated with our families through the Friday folders. My students are wonderful kids who will thrive in their academics and social emotional growth with these given supplies.
