My Project

I love when my kids come ready to learn and to be engaged, but I understand that this can be difficult for a lot of kids due to a number of factors. I plan to use these materials to help kids who maybe don’t have everything they need to start their school year off right.

Many kids may not have everything they need to start their school year off right, and I’d like to bridge that gap in our social studies classroom.

By providing simple items like pens, pencils, highlighters and more in an organized classroom, kids will have what they need and be able to maximize learning in our classroom.
