My Students

I have two classes split up into a morning and afternoon class. In the morning, I have an active group of 3-year-olds and in the afternoon an explorative group of 4-year-olds. We are located in a low-income community that would really benefit from outside support.

Creative, energetic, and explorative; my students are always ready to try new things.

They enjoy moving from center to center exploring different subjects throughout the room. We have 10 centers in our classroom to learn through play in all different subjects.

Please partner with us to help bulk up those centers for my students to have independent learning experiences.

My Project

School is so much healthier without water fountains. We have now spent 1-year using water bottles. There is NO going back!

Water fountains could be used as a bacterial science project!

I have found water bottle stands to organize each student's personal bottle. This will help to give them more access to their water throughout the day. I can easily label each spot with their name and or a picture.

We would greatly appreciate your help in continuing this practice of healthy living. It is such a simple thing to keep kids in school and out of the doctor's office!
