My Project

Every year I get a classroom of eager young first graders ready to begin a new school year. To keep our classroom fun, I like to reward students for all their hard work with prizes. Every student creates a math and reading goal. As students reach a goal, they receive a classroom incentive. I have included many items to get all students excited about creating and reaching their classroom goals.

First grade can be an emotional time for young learners.

I would like to help alleviate some of the stress students feel with fidgets and the A Spot of Kindness series. Students must learn empathy for one another and understand each other's feelings. These materials will help students do just that!

Keeping a classroom running requires many materials. I have also included several classroom organizational materials for students to keep their supplies.

Thank you for believing in my students as I do and helping our classroom stay fun and engaging!
