My Project

Entering my Kindergarten Era, we'll make the whole class shimmer!

Currently a first year, 1st Grade Teacher, I will be beginning my journey as a Kindergarten teacher.

Kindergarten, (being their first year of school ever!), is a very special time. They learn a lot academically, socially, and emotionally. I would like to foster an environment where they can explore all three through play! In kindergarten, play is a physical part of their curriculum and to keep it fresh, interesting, and continue their growth we like to have many different options for play. I have listed lots of beneficial STEM activities for appropriate for a kindergarten student. I am so excited to start this journey and with your help, I can give students everything and more!
