I am a passionate preschool teacher. I teach a diverse group students, ages 4 and 5. Many of these students come from low-income families who face many different challenges on a daily basis. My goal is to provide a high quality education to prepare them for Kindergarten. To do this I need a variety of materials to enhance their learning and give them experiences they would otherwise not receive.
My student’s are curious, creative and demonstrate a desire to learn through play.
While they are at school, my students receive a free breakfast, lunch and snack to help meet their basic needs so they are able to learn. It is my job to give them a variety of learning experiences so they can explore, grow and learn. Many materials used in my classroom are not available to them at home. I want to encourage my student’s to learn while having fun. I want to set them up for a successful life and love of learning.
My Project
Learning the both upper and lower case letters in the alphabet along with the letter sounds are vital in preschool. This knowledge lays the foundation for so many literacy skills that start in Kindergarten and beyond.
These materials will allow for my students to have their own set of alphabet letters and a case to store them in.
This will allow for them to practice, explore and learn with them in the classroom and remotely. The cases will help us carry them back and forth so we can learn together.
