MEET MISS MACNULTY

Hi, I’m Jenna!

I've wanted to be a teacher for as long as I can remember, and I can't believe I finally have my own third grade classroom now! I wanted to share my story to document not only the rewarding moments of my first year in the classroom, but also the challenges. Through Year One, I hope to showcase the realities of being a teacher beyond colorful classroom decor and perfectly curated lesson plans.

Join me as I navigate year one in the classroom, and follow me on social media to share your thoughts!
