About the store
Thanks for visiting! Please leave me a review if you download one of my materials! Officially, I have just finished my second full year of teaching, but truthfully, I have been teaching since I was five years old! I have always surrounded myself with education and found myself in classrooms. I spent the last two years teaching a 3rd and 4th grade Montessori class. Before that, I taught half a year of kindergarten, half a year of second grade, and 2 years of PreK while in college. This year, I am excited to return to the Kindergarten Classroom! You can count on my store to put a fun and interesting spin on learning and keep your students' curiosity peaked!
