My Project

After a few years of teaching kindergarten, I have learned that certain resources are needed each year. These items have proven to make our classroom better.

Students love to create and to know where their items go, and what belongs to them.

These items will help them stay organized, as well as possibly enjoy the classroom experience a little more. We use the shoe organizer for their water bottles, and who doesn't love a custom pencil topper, so they know which pencil is theirs?

Thank you for considering supporting our classroom!
