Working on setting up my new classroom with a huge focus on flexible seating. Please help me clear my list. I’d love to have a gorgeous cozy space for my readers day one! Currently, my room is completely empty. amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls…

Thank you for those who have purchased items from my Classroom Wishlist. Providing inclusive, welcoming spaces is something I’m fiercely passionate about. A new classroom has me starting from scratch.

A huge thanks to Dr. Jen Ricks for helping me clear my list. This chalkboard paper will cover my door and be space for amazing quotes my Ss find in their reading. Thank you, Jen!!

My Classroom list is getting shorter. I cannot wait to share my space with everyone-it is really coming together beautifully. A focus on flexible seating Thank you!! I still have a few items to clear. amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls…

Since Time Immemorial pd through WA State OSPI was probably the best PD I’ve ever attended. Hearing from indigenous elders about their history was powerful, raw, important. We have so much work to do in each of our classes.
