My Project

Each day in my classroom, it is my goal to create engaging lessons that excite my students in learning. Ensuring I have enough materials to try new things, keep content stimulating, and provide a safe experience for my students is of the utmost importance.

My students' favorite lessons are the ones where I find them most engaged and excited about the materials they're interacting with.

These materials will allow for more learning through student-based and collaborative discovery.

With your support, I hope to create and foster a lifelong passion for learning and discovery in my first graders.
