My Project

My classroom is comprised of 22 kindergarten students from various and diverse backgrounds, representing at least five different ethnicities. Many of my students are first-generation English speakers, who serve as interpreters for their families and other students in our school. My students face a variety of challenges beyond the classroom, such as transportation, housing, clothing, and food insecurities. Despite these challenges, my students are excited to learn and grow each day. I love teaching and I am excited to go to school every day! I have always said that I am on a mission field in my classroom, and I know I am making a difference one child at a time.

Learning to sit and work together is a critical skill all children must develop to succeed in school.

Because of the pandemic, many of my students did not attend pre-kindergarten in person, therefore, they have not interacted with other children as they would have had pre-pandemic. Sadly, because of this many of them do not know how to interact with others.

My students do whole group and small group activities. For small groups, my students rotate daily through the writing table, reading table, listening table, and a meet the teacher table. The new chairs will be instrumental in facilitating both whole group and small group daily centers, allowing my students to sit comfortably and work together as they learn. The chairs will also help my students learn their colors because every day they will sit in a different colored chair.
