Each one is its own studio, with its own name, its own grade band and its own teacher. They don't share a catalog and they don't share a voice — only a standard for how the work gets finished.
The AI Literacy Shop
Grades 6–12 · AI literacy · Founded 2026
AI arrived in classrooms faster than anyone wrote a curriculum for it. The AI Literacy Shop exists because the gap between "students are using this" and "we have taught them how to think about it" got wide enough to fall into.
The catalog is built around one idea: a student who understands what a language model actually does — how it predicts, where it invents, why it sounds confident when it's wrong — is in a completely different position from a student who was only told not to cheat with it. So the lessons are less about rules and more about mechanism, argument, and judgment.
Everything is a print-ready PDF, mapped to ISTE, CCSS and AI4K12 codes, and sequenced so a teacher can run a whole unit rather than assemble one.
The person behind it
Maya spent fifteen years teaching technology and computer science before leaving the classroom to do this full-time. She's ISTE-certified, based in Texas, and the parent of a fifteen-year-old — which is to say the questions in these lessons are ones she has at her own kitchen table.

Bright Fox Learning
Grades K–5 · Early reading & math · Founded 2026
Bright Fox Learning is the studio for the years when reading is still being built rather than used. The phonics work follows the Science of Reading: one skill at a time, in an order that holds, with enough practice pages that a teacher isn't hunting for the next one on a Sunday night.
Two things shape everything here. The first is Finn the Fox, who runs through the whole catalog — decodable readers, worksheet corners, the guide in a math page — so a child meets the same friend every time instead of a new clip-art stranger. The second is a rule we set at the start: nothing in the catalog carries a year, a school-year label or a "new" badge. A phonics page that works in October works the following October too, and a teacher who bought it shouldn't have to rebuy it.
Everything is designed to print cleanly and to hold up on a screen for teachers working digitally.
The person behind it
Ms. Emily has been a U.S. elementary educator for around fifteen years and still works directly with students every week, mostly small-group literacy and intervention. Her degree is in elementary education, she holds a state teaching license, and her professional training runs through structured literacy, phonemic awareness and the Science of Reading. She reviews the curriculum here as an education partner.

Matchy Room
Grades K–5 · Classroom decor · Founded 2026
Anyone who has decorated a classroom knows the specific defeat of buying four cute sets and watching them clash on the wall. Matchy Room is built against exactly that: one theme means one palette, one pattern family and one type style, all the way through.
So the name tags, the bulletin board letters, the jobs chart, the word wall and the calendar you print from a single theme end up on the wall looking like someone planned them. Because someone did.
Every download comes in US Letter and A4, laid out natively for both. Ink-friendly and type-your-own versions where they're worth having. Files named so you can find the page you need without opening all of them.
The person behind it
Lauren teaches elementary in a U.S. public school and is in her eighteenth year, still in the classroom. She has her own homeroom, so she sets the room up before the first day and then lives in it all year. She picks what gets made, sits with the drafts, prints pieces, puts them up, and then walks to the back of the room to check whether a child can still read them.
