My Students

My curious and amazing kindergarteners are incredibly motivated to learn more and more about our world. Kindergarten is all about learning through play and real life experiences. They are inquisitive and love asking questions, both simple and complex. My students love play and completing hands-on activities to expand their understanding of the world around them. Our school is economically diverse and the children come from a variety of socioeconomic and ethnic backgrounds. I am a first year kindergarten teacher and am still building my learning materials to give my students the same educational experiences as the other kindergarten classrooms at our school.

My students love play and completing hands-on activities to expand their understanding of the world around them.

My Project

We will be studying and comparing the life cycles of chickens and ducks in our kindergarten classroom this spring!

This hands-on science unit with inspire the young minds of my students as they will learn first-hand about the structure of eggs and how life develops inside the shells.

This study of "oviparous" animals, including studying their growth, habits and anatomy is exciting and heartwarming.

As the chicks and ducklings develop inside the incubator, we will be able to observe this using the candlers. The children will be able to witness them hatch with their own eyes and observe this miracle of life!
