My Students

My students love to learn using hands-on reading, writing, and math materials.

I teach a wonderful group of kindergarten students who come from diverse backgrounds and educational experiences.

I have students with speech, academic, and behavior goals as well as English Language Learners in my classroom. For many of my students, this is the first time they have been to school or instructed in English.

Some of my kindergarten students begin the year without knowledge of letters, numbers, or how to write their names. They are so eager to learn and quickly gain basic kindergarten skills, such as identifying and writing numbers and letters, counting, and writing their names. My students love to learn using a hands-on approach, where they learn through play. I love to see the excitement of my students when they learn something new!

My Project

I am teaching 25 kindergarten students in person this year. I am very excited to have my students in school.

I am doing everything I can to keep my students healthy and safe in my learning environment.

I would like to have extra face masks that I can give the students if they forget to bring one, theirs becomes wet, or if the one they are wearing is bothering them.

We are running low on Kleenex in my classroom. A fresh supply of Kleenex will help my students take care of their health needs this winter.

I would like replacement air purifier filters for our classroom air purifiers to filter out any airborne particles that may make my students ill.

My goal is to keep the students in my classroom healthy, so they can attend school every day. When students feel healthy, they are able to focus and learn more. Thank you for your support!
