My Project

I run a variety of SEL groups per week. My space is full of smiles, tears, fears, and most often giggles.

I support the needs of some excellent active primary school students.

In my room, all learning is based on play. We get messy and use the power of our creative energy to figure out how to fix, clean up, or get out of the messes we create.

The craft sets in this project will foster my students' creativities and the Meyers cleaning products, Meyers hand soap, Kleenex, and Swiffer wet jet refills and cloths will help keep our noses, hands, and learning space clean.

The planner will help keep me inspired and organized to ensure I plan ahead for my students.
