Booking It to Kinder!

Help me give my students an Alilo reading pen, games and puzzles, to support their independence while learning how to read. I want to provide my students with developmentally appropriate ways to support their development in reading skills.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

I have taught PreK for the past 7 years. Next year, I'll be moving to Kindergarten. I am excited to continue building relationships with the students I have this year in PK as they move to the next level.

I want to motivate them to continue their reading journey with games and manipulatives that encourage them to explore and take responsibility for their learning.

My students love learning and crave new experiences! I know I can help to inspire them. Please help me support my students as they transition to Kinder with me!
