My Project

As a Kindergarten teacher, we use many materials to enhance learning. I am looking to restock some of these materials to ensure we can continue to learn! I would also love to encourage literacy in my classroom through a comfortable reading area. Flexible seating could help me do this!

We are so grateful for your support!

Please help our classroom community! My students are very eager to learn and love to help others! By supporting us, we can teach, encourage and inspire the same message! Please consider helping our classroom!
