My students are an amazing group of excited 3-5 year-olds, some with disabilities, who are so thrilled be be in "big school". Home for my students is an area where the average annual income is $5,000. Violence, drugs, and crime are regular events in their young lives. Pre-K is the first formal learning environment that most of my students have ever experienced. But it takes little to no time to see these young learners begin to grow and make progress! And their excited responses to structure, new ideas, novel concepts, and applied learning are so amazing to witness. They are thriving and growing each day in a way that cannot be fairly explained through words. Its a pretty great place to go to "work" each and every day. For all of us!
