My Project

My students continue to amaze me every day! They are working so hard to grow as readers, writers, mathematicians and humans every day. They deserve nothing but the best.

The stuffies of some of our favorite book characters will help make our library more engaging and will help to calm the students big emotions and comfort them when needed.

The fidgets will help to keep students focused and engaged on the task and the new books will add more challenging and new characters to our library!

Thank you for supporting my classroom and my students!
