My Students
Our early childhood school is now in its thirteenth year serving the community. In our pre-k class, that means over one hundred and eighty students have come and gone from this classroom. Along with that, many other students have called our room home for enrichment classes, after school programs and summer camp.
Families send their precious children to our class every day, for us to help them take those first steps towards accomplishing great feats.
Our families are working-class parents who often work long hours to provide for their children.
Children make this room their home for however long they stay and miss it dearly when they move on. It's something we take pride in, and we hope to continue doing what we love to do and that nurtures their love of learning.
I've been teaching at my first and current school for seven years. No matter who enters through that door, they are part of our school family. I hope to provide them with the absolute best education we can offer.
My Project
We go through our lives learning different lessons that will help us grow and develop into the people we are now. Some experiences and lessons are much harder to come by through experience. One of the reasons why we read is to learn a variety of life lessons we wouldn't be able to experience. Not many people can travel to different parts of the world and experience the magical things the world has to offer.
Literature is the passport to experiencing the amazing things without having to hop on a plane or a time machine.
I am requesting books to add to my students' at-home library or even be the very first, and games to encourage families to spend time together. We always tell our parents to read and spend time with their children. With these materials to send home, it will show our families we mean what we say.
My goal is to get more books into the hands of our children and in their homes. My family did not have much when I was growing up, but my mom would always buy me books. Books played an important part of my childhood, and I hope to give my students that same opportunity.
