My Students

I have a classroom full of 21 kindergarteners that will absolutely steal your heart within just minutes of stepping into my classroom! They are the sweetest children! Every morning they come skipping down the hallway and smile up at me as they walk through the door. All day long, their little hands shoot up in the air, eager to ask me questions and tell me stories about their cats, eating macaroni and cheese for lunch and their new sneakers. Their excitement and joy is infectious, it's impossible not to be happy when you're around them! They love learning, and even play teacher during play time, reading to other children, just like I read to the class. They get so excited when they find sight words in the books they read, calling me over to show me, gleaming with pride! I truly have the best job, as I get to spend my day with the most kind and happy people that have a love of learning like no other - children!

My Project

These two little red chairs would be placed in my classroom library, in my kindergarten classroom, where the children will be able to sit and read during our school day. My kindergarteners would love having a cozy and comfy spot to sit and enjoy their books, instead of sitting on their hard chairs or on the floor. These cozy chairs would help make reading time more relaxing and enjoyable for my little ones! Help make my classroom a more comfortable place in which my kindergarteners want to come everyday, eager to relax and read their books, making life longer readers!
