Ms. M's Free Resources - Holidays/Seasons

Donations are not necessary but GREATLY appreciated from the bottom of my heart due to the huge amount of time & care put into creating. ❤️I'm a 3rd year teacher. I started my teaching career a Title I elementary school & (displaced to a) Title I middle school, where I struggled financially with constantly personally funding school materials for my class. I graduated with my Master's at the age of 20 in 2019 from Stanford University's teacher education program as a first generation college student, and am working to pay off loans. Now, I teach 2nd grade as a founding teacher at a brand new public school, but I spend the extra time to create resources that cater to ALL grade levels in hopes that it'll save you time! I am working to build a classroom library. Up until now, I've been trying to fundraise through making digital art on nights and weekends, but have decided to share these all for free. 🙂 Thank you for your love and support!

WARNING: If you share my resources with others (e.g. letting colleagues know or posting on social media), please share the link to my website to credit me for my work. I spend a very long time creating each and every resource, and put in lots of extra time to make them accessible and useful to all grade levels instead of just my own.
