My Students

My students attend a public school that houses kindergarten through 5th grade.

Do you remember doing a puzzle when you were little?

Puzzles are a great way to make our brains think and help us to become thinkers!

My hope is that my kindergarten classroom is a warm, inviting, and energetic place for my students. My kindergarten kiddos all have different learning styles, and often just need a little "brain break" from our Kindergarten academics. To help get the wiggles out, (and keep our brains ready to think!) my students love puzzles!

My Project

Puzzles, puzzles, everywhere! Puzzles can be used in a multitude of areas in my classroom. Puzzles can be used as morning work to get my kiddos' brains thinking, they can be used during our free choice centers, and they can also be used during our learning centers in our classroom. They are a fun and engaging way for my students to be actively learning and giving their brains a workout in my classroom.

In my Kindergarten classroom, we use puzzles to give our energetic brains a, "brain break," from learning!

My students want a fun and active way to get their brains going in the morning. Puzzles are the answer! My goal is to have at least 1-2 puzzles for each student in my classroom so that they remain engaging! Thank you for helping us move one step closer to my goal!
