My kindergarten class is full of 18 truly incredible students. I teach in a school with 80% poverty, and these babies see it all, even the things they should not. Even though life is not easy for my students, they come in with a smile on their face and ready to learn.
I am so proud of the progress I watch my students make every day.
These students are a diverse group that includes ELL and students with disabilities, and no matter what... we all succeed together.
My Project
To better support my students I am asking for your help in growing their learning. I need to get them using tangible, hands-on materials for both math and early literacy. With these materials and activities, students will grow deeply in their number sense and phonemic awareness.
As kindergarteners, we are busy moving about the classroom so worksheets just don't work for us.
I am asking for alphabet tubs which will help students discriminate between letters and their sounds. These tubs have different objects that the student can see which will help both kinesthetic and visual learners. I also need number locks and house blocks (that rhymes)! These will assist in matching and sorting our numbers 0-20.
My students are really excited to get their hands on these new materials.
