My Students

My students are sweet, intuitive and energetic. They are full of questions and curiosity that drives their learning each day.

Due to our virtual setting, my students have lost some of that hands on learning that helps them to thrive.

Even with the virtual challenges that they face every day, my students keep an open mind and work hard to do their best. With the holidays coming up, I want to reward them for their hard work and perseverance by putting together a holiday gift bag for each of them.

My Project

Due to the overwhelming support from my first "Festive Gifts for First Graders," I was able to create another project to add to their gift bags. This time I was able to add more supplies that will support their virtual learning experience at home! In addition, students will each get their own book to write and illustrate, a Mo Willems book, and a mini lego set. I know they are going to be so excited about these gifts.

I am so thankful for the donors who were able to make this second project possible!
