We LOVE Fan Mail…

Your website is the BEST ever
I have looked at many blogs in my 16 years of teaching… well, let’s be honest, I was still reading Mailbox magazines back then when I first began teaching 😉 BUT, I am here to tell you that Life Over C’s is the BEST ever! The amount of free resources you have provided are VERY appreciated. It is such a blessing to be able to grab some resources for free with all the money that I pour into my classroom already.

I have taught everything K-4 as a classroom teacher and I am currently the teacher of multilingual learners (EL teacher) for grades K-8 at two schools. Thank you so much for your kindness and spreading the word that wiggly kids need hands on learning. I’m obsessed with language acquisition and fully believe my ML’s will benefit most from learning through play, especially at the younger ages.

Hope you are having a wonderful week and you, too, are an AMAZING teacher 🙂
