Thanks for checking out my projects! Your generosity directly impacts the absolutely sweetest, hardest working first graders around. Our classroom is in an urban school district. My students come from various cultural and socio-economic backgrounds. For some of my students, school is their first exposure to the English language. Some of my young students face adversities one would hope never to experience. My students leave that behind and come to school ready to learn. Through your generosity, I am able to create an engaging classroom environment to prepare my students to grow and make a difference in the world. Thank you for helping my kids!
