About the store
Welcome to The Learning Carpenter—where teaching is treated like a craft and every resource is built with purpose.
I’m a veteran educator with 18 years of experience teaching grades 2–8, and I know firsthand the challenge of finding materials that are both meaningful and manageable. My goal is to create resources that don’t just fill time—they support real learning, encourage critical thinking, and actually work in your classroom.
Here you’ll find thoughtfully designed materials for middle grades (with room to grow!), including math, history, leadership, and Career & Technical Education (CTE). Each resource is created to be practical, engaging, and visually clean—because good design matters just as much as good content.
Whether you’re looking for something ready to use tomorrow or a tool to elevate your instruction, everything here is crafted with intention and classroom reality in mind.
Building better classrooms, one resource at a time.

Leadership Lessons
As a Leadership teacher, it's hard to find free or cheap curriculum for character building and community service, so I have created some of my own projects. I have a 7th/8th grade mixed class, and I use these projects every year because students like to do them again just researching someone else or interviewing a new friend. Included in this file is:
Leader Research Project
Character Essay
Communication Project
Community Service Project
I usually start the year with some games/activities ab
