new website resources

If your child is looking for academic resources, supports, videos, or games, please be sure to encourage them to visit my website! If they click on the "Students" tab, they will be brought to a page that has buttons for each subject. Once they click on the subject, they can explore various materials on content-related subjects!

Thank you!

Our class so generously received these Plus Plus creation blocks from our Amazon Wish List, and we want to say a huge THANK YOU! What a special surprise! Unfortunately, there was no slip in the package indicating who donated this gift to us. If it was you, please let me know so we can properly thank you!
