My Project

Walk into our kindergarten classroom in Crown Heights Brooklyn and you will find a group of determined, engaged, and joyful students committed to growing and achieving against all obstacles!

What I love best about my students is that they learn at any early age to live and learn with DRIVE (determination, respect, integrity, voice, and engagement).

They seek out opportunities to demonstrate these values each and every day.

These materials will give an opportunity for our students to finish the school year strong with a memorable and interactive kindergarten experience. These materials will help us our tactile learners as well as replenish our classroom with the necessary supplies needed to finish the school year.
