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 students to learn while having fun. I want to set them up for a successful life and love of learning.
My Project
"All About Me" is a study I do every year with my students. I want to learn more about what makes them unique and how they make up a part of our classroom community. We are all a special piece to our classroom puzzle.
Diversity is something to be celebrated and these materials will help my students represent themselves how they want to be seen.Having a variety of ways for my students to represent themselves helps our entire classroom community learn to understand them better and become more accepting.
We are all different, but together we are wonderful!
