My Students

¨A good teacher can inspire hope, ignite the imagination, and instill a love of learning.¨- Brad Henry

My students love to learn in an interactive and engaging way!

My students come from various ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds. Each student has their own learning style. Building a Virtual classroom that is organized and welcoming is my main goal. My kindergarten students deserve an interactive virtual classroom that will help them grow as a student and an individual.

My Project

These materials will help my students engage their fine motor skills and enhance their thinking. The Kinestic sand will allow my students to be creative and strengthen their muscles and coordination. Fine motor skills help children perform important tasks. For example- feeding themselves, grasping objects, writing, and coloring. The only way to strengthen fine motor skills is by practice. The Bingo chips and wand will help my students with sounding out CVC words. The chips will represent a sound and the wand will help them blend the sounds together. This will help them learn Phonics in a kinesthetic way.

Creating engaging and interactive activities helps students learn and grow.

Students will love these hands-on and engaging materials. Most importantly my students will have fun and not realize they are working on their fine motor skills!
