My Students

Teaching kindergarten is the best job in the world! My kinder students are eager to please and eager to learn. Excited, engaged, enlightened - these are a few words to describe the way my students feel about their Kindergarten journey!

With a safe place to inquire and learn, my students spend their days interacting with each other, exploring the world around them and expanding their hunger for knowledge.

My students love to express themselves by drawing, painting, and creating art projects. We are in need of basic art supplies to start the year off right! From day one, I allow them to express themselves and what better way than through artwork!

My Project

Do you remember that childhood feeling you had each year when all of your school supplies were fresh and new? Oh the wonder of enscribing your name on your new things! Well, it's a brand new school year which means I need some new supplies for this year's Kindergarten class. With school starting in a couple of weeks, I hope to engage the children with art supplies that they will cherish all year long. Teaching kindergarten is such a special mission. The growth that you get to witness is one year is unbelievable. Children come to school ready to explore and learn.

Kindergarteners have amazing imaginations and it's beautiful seeing them brought to life!

These art materials will help to reach all different types of learners throughout the year. My students will be able to express themselves through art with the paints, markers, and paper. A classroom that is easily accessible to my students is important! These art supplies will be used for whole group art projects as well as during a free time art center in the afternoons.
