  LIVE Unboxing of my Lit Kit Subscription Box

  Jul 25, 202645 min

  Why did I create this box? Here's my vision: I've been mentoring and training teachers for 20 years now, and one of the pain points that they all complain about is lesson planning. They complain that it takes too long because they're having to look on Pinterest, TPT, or Google to find quality lessons. This is particularly a problem if they don't have a decent curriculum or none at all. Since it takes so much time, they don't have time with their families or for themselves. I paid attention to this concern, and then I decided to do something about it. I wanted to create a subscription box where you have all of your lesson plans and materials ready for you to teach! How brilliant is that... thus the Lit Kit was born! And you deserve to invest in something for yourself! Check out my VIDEO of my Live unboxing HERE!

  LIVE Unboxing of my Writing and Math Subscription Boxes

  Jul 18, 202631 min

  Why did I decide to make a Math and Writing Center box for K-2 Teachers? Here's my vision and purpose... What if I told you that your Writing and Math Center was already prepped and ready to set up? What if I told you that you only had to teach these games and activities ONE time and that your students would know how to do them for the rest of the year? What if I told you that you only had to switch out your Math or Writing Center once a month instead of weekly? Would you fall in LOVE with your Centers again? I hope so! That's my wish for you! My Subscription Box and Teacher Membership are OPEN! Subscribe HERE! Check out my All Access Pass from my Back to School Bootcamp HERE .

  My Math Center Subscription Box: What's It All About?

  Jul 11, 202616 min

  How many times do you change out your centers each month? I’ve asked many teachers this question about centers, and many of them said that centers are overwhelming, exhausting, unengaging, and not fun for them or their students, especially when they switch them out every week! Let’s face it… I would be exhausted too! Then, I had an idea… why not create a math center box that the teachers could use for the whole month with no prep on their end? Brilliant! So, that was my vision for my Math Center Subscription Box. All the games, materials, and supplies would already be prepped and ready, and all the teacher had to do was set it up!
