About

Hi there! It’s so nice to have you here! My name is Sommer and I am the creative brains behind Stay Classy Classrooms!
I am a mummy to 3 gorgeous little people.. Korbin, Morrissey and Everly. You see them a lot here… they are entrusted with being my Chief Resource Testers and they take their jobs seriously! I am also a Prep teacher on the Gold Coast, Australia.
I am married to a man that is far more patient than I will ever be…. this includes nodding politely when I exclaim that “I’ve had an idea!”… it happens a LOT!

I am incredibly passionate about early years learning, especially through play! I believe that children need to experience learning in a setting where they don’t even know that they are learning! I am here to share that passion with you through easy to use, hands-on resources and activities that are fun and engaging! Oh and I’ll save you time in the process!

Stay Classy Classrooms started from a love of visual resources that helped non-readers participate in the classroom. Posters that didn’t just look good but served a real purpose! It expanded when my own son, Korbin was diagnosed with albinism, a condition that means reduced pigment in the eyes, skin and hair. It means that he (and later his sister Morrissey) are visual impaired. I wanted to be able to create anything that he ever needed to help him learn and be able to adapt it for him to access it… Then I wanted to do that for as many little people as I possibly could!

I pride myself on creating resources that will not only save you time, but are fun, engaging, age-appropriate, curriculum linked and easy to differentiate!

More about Sommer

My name is Sommer. I am a mum of 3. A resource creator. A Prep teacher in Queensland. A lover of play-based learning. A special needs advocate. A creative thinker. A believer that learning should be fun.. so fun that they don't know they're learning!

🏠 Pick up that many ones with the tweezers (I put the tri-grips in as an added challenge… honestly the funniest thing I’ve seen with them trying to use them 🤣🤣🤣)
🏠 Make a tower of ones in the O window until you get to 10 then you have to put them back in the tub and trade for a ten block
🏠 And just keep going!

They liked it so much they requested it for fine motor tomorrow morning! Happy to oblige 🥰
