My Project

Every school year teachers think and reflect on what went well and what is needed to change for next year. We think about what the children loved to use and what more we can give them. As we know, the classroom environment is another teacher- and it is important to set up that space that is warm, inviting, and supportive for the children.

These materials will start the next school year off with a bang!

With the new beautiful art supplies, cozy couch, and teacher materials, our class will start the year with all the important things we need.
