My Project

I am a proud teacher at an Elementary School that is part of Milwaukee Public Schools. I began as a K3 - Head Start teacher, but I am excited to move to teaching kindergarten this upcoming year! I am trying to create a beautiful, clean, well-supplied, and exciting classroom for my kindergarten students! My goal is to provide my students with the basic things they will need to complete our school work like pencils, crayons, markers, and more. I also want to be sure that our room is a clean and calm space where all students can flourish. This will be my first year teaching kindergarten and any help towards establishing my room is so very much appreciated! The Teachers Pay Teachers gift card will allow me to purchase curriculum from veteran teachers for my new kindergarten classroom. Thank you in advance for any contributions.
