My Project

While I haven't met my new batch of friends yet, I know they'll be super ecstatic to work with these materials. I'm moving to a new classroom this year and will need many supplies to complete my room.

Literacy is my passion!

I can't wait to teach my friends how to read in fun, dynamic ways. Seeing my students fall in love with books warms my heart.

The dry erase markers will help my friends go from writing their name--to words--to complete sentences and beyond.

The STEM focused toys are to bring back the joy we all experienced in kindergarten. These strategic manipulatives will spark the natural creativity my little engineers have!

Thank you for contributing to not just my classroom, but the future leaders of the world! I can't wait to watch them grow!

Love,

Tea
