I started my school year as a second grade teacher and I had my second grade classroom ready. During leveling period, I was moved to prek due to the fact that I had experience in prek. I had to start all over again with all types of materials and word walls for circle time because I was in prek 10 years ago, and I didn't have anything. I will be using the pocket chart and posters as part of my daily routine. The cotton and glue are for the cute crafts we do, and I use dry erase markers with my students almost every day. We use them to learn how to write letters, numbers, and also they love to draw. I am about to run out of this material. Also, I am in need of a rug to place in front of the screen, I need my students closer to the screen, it would be more convenient, effective, and a time saver. I don't like to be moving students or the screen so students can see better. The rug would save me all inconveniences. All of these articles will be used in the classroom and they sure will have great and fruitful use.
