What Do Other Teacher Friends Have To Say?
Amie Trudnowski
"Angie's resources are made with a busy, conscientious, and passionate teacher in mind. Her website could also be called Making The Essentials Fun because all of the resources cover essential materials you'll use to get your students where they need to be, AND, here's where the magic is, they will have a smile on their faces while learning! My kids love it and so will yours. Win/Win! Thank you Angie, keep it coming."
Renae Myers
"I have always enjoyed receiving supporting resources and ideas from Angie K and Making The Basics Fun. She makes things that are easy and ready to incorporate into my classroom. My first-graders always enjoy the activities."
McKenzie Reyant
"I've been a huge fan of Angie since the start of my teaching career. She's been one of my biggest influences when it comes to hands-on and student direct learning. She's creative and makes things that hit specific skills that require limited prep, but most importantly, she finds a way to keep them engaging for kids. Her extensive experience working with primary kids is evident in the activities she creates and the ideas she has. Anytime I'm looking for a fresh idea or something to bring a new energy into my room, I turn to Angie for help!"
