My Students

My kindergartners are rockstars! Each child in our classroom community is spunky, loving, and ready to learn! Their questions and curiosity remind me every day why I decided I wanted to be a teacher. For some of the students in my class, this is their first school experience. I want to make sure that I am giving them the love, skills, and resources they need in order to thrive at school!

My kindergartners are nothing but FUN: Friendly, Unique, and Non-stop ENERGY!

My Project

For the past five years, I have been a kindergarten teacher at an elementary school. At our school, I was lucky enough to have a classroom set of books provided for my students. This upcoming school year I will embark on a new adventure, teaching kindergarten at a new elementary school. I want my kindergarteners to have the best selection of books available to them during their first year of elementary school, as they dive into reading!! For this project, I have selected some of my favorite books and kindergarten favorites that I know my incoming students will love! Thank you for all your support as I try to provide my students with the best possible education!
