My Students
The students in my classroom are three, four, and five-year-olds.
My little learners are eager and enthusiastic about coming to school to learn through play.
Our school maintains 20 classrooms that serve over 700 at-risk, preschool-age children and their families on a daily basis. At-risk means that through a developmental screening process a child was found to have one or more characteristics that may adversely impact their readiness for kindergarten and further school success. One of these at-risk factors is low income and the majority of our school population is low income. Although the majority of our families are low-income we represent all socio-economic levels.
My Project
There is always enough room for this rollicking alphabet chant. Reading Chicka Chicka Boom Boom will increase the alphabet knowledge and phonemic awareness of my preschoolers. Counting with magnetic numbers will build math skills and number sense while having fun.
Chicka Chicka Boom Boom will you help me make room for name writing and number recognition?
There are many different possibilities with these magnetic letters and numbers. In this uncertain time of remote learning, making sure each student has a set of these magnetic letters and numbers to keep at home will make learning the alphabet and numbers more enjoyable.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
