This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Students
Time sure does fly when you're having fun in kindergarten! I am excited to begin the second half of the school year! I have an amazing group of students who come to school eager and ready to learn each day.
Specifically, my school is a public Title I school that has a diverse population of military and non-military families.
My students are special because they are caring, respectful, hardworking, and have a willingness to learn each day. Our classroom is filled with a variety of learning experiences that includes STEM, technology-based learning, small group, as well as individualized instruction. It is my goal to meet with each of my students on a daily basis to check in with their learning goals.
As their teacher, I strive to create a classroom environment that is organized, warm, and inviting so my students can learn, work, and grow together. As we work towards the end of the school year, I want to continue to provide them with rich learning experiences that will ensure they are prepared and ready for first grade. Thank you all for supporting the needs of my students!
My Project
The days when students sit lined up in rows and hard desks are over. My students have entered the age of learning where they enjoy stretching out on the floor, sitting in comfortable chairs and propping up on pillows to complete their work. Our morning work block consists of computer-based learning where students are working on Heads Sprouts, Raz Kids, ABC Mouse, and Now Do Ink to record themselves telling stories.
I have noticed that as a result of flexible seating options, my students are able to focus and stay engaged longer since they are comfortable.
They are also happier and eager to begin our morning literacy block and afternoon math block because they will have an opportunity to work in comfort. I am excited to create a learning environment for my students that is mobile an engaging down to the bouncy ball seating and mobile table. The table is especially important because during the afternoon I can move the tables and chairs out of the way to make space for STEM, spheros and dash and dot robots.
As a result of the table and bouncy chairs I will be able to cater to the diverse needs of my students as well as create a room that is unique to my diverse teaching style. To each of my future donors, thank you all so much for supporting the needs of my students! It is truly a teacher's dream to be able to create a classroom environment where students can learn and love being in.
