About the store
This store is dedicated to making a teacher's life easier, by making learning resources that put the FUN into learning. Research shows that when kids are relaxed and having fun, they learn more and retain it longer. I began my career in Sylvania, Ohio teaching first grade. My family soon moved to Cobb County, Georgia where I taught grades 2-4 for 18 years. I was very lucky to be In Cobb County, and to teach at two great schools, Addison Elementary and Bullard elementary.
