My bio was probably not the easiest to work with. My only request was a need of books for a classroom library for 7th grade English. Honestly, I just started my first year and had no idea what all I would possibly need. Luckily, my santa, Jon, grew up with a father for a teacher. Not only did Jon send me roughly 20 books for a classroom library, he also sent a number of binders, pens, pencils, paper, and general supplies. Not only was the package loaded with goodies, there was also a lovely, heart-warming note about how impactful 7th grade English class was for my santa. Although the circumstances were grave, I hope my students can look back and say that my class was also impactful.

Thank you for your kindness fellow redditor. My classroom is now a bit brighter and more welcoming.
