PLEASE SEE THE FAQ IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS. I am a busy classroom teacher just as many of you are. I am simply sharing (for free) what I've taken hours of time to put together using online resources (images, YouTube videos, etc.) , as well as my own artwork (Valentine clipart). Again, please see the FAQ, as I will NOT be able to respond to questions.
Welcome to Ms. M's Teaching Resources!
Hope you enjoy my resources! All are free, and each one is made carefully with lots of time & love.
I've hand-drawn my clip art resources (Valentine's), included tutorial videos for the math mystery pictures, & included visuals for the scavenger hunts. I take lots of time to research books to select and incorporate into all of the virtual libraries.
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.
