My Project

Kindergarten is a new, fun and exciting time for the students. As an educator I always want my kindergartners to enjoy coming to school and learn new things.

One way to keep it fun and exciting for them is by having special events throughout the year for them to experience.

To start the year off we will use the camo hats for a "Kindergarten Bootcamp" where they will show off all their new skills for the school year. As our year progresses we have many events and celebrations to keep school engaging and special. In December we celebrate the magic of holiday season by having gingerbread become "lose" in the school. The arts and crafts and gingerbread STEM activity will be used to keep the theme across all genre of learning. Animal mask are worn during our Animal Habitat Exhibit were students show off their animal projects to families. The Cricut materials and bags will be used to make Valentines and specials celebrations gifts for them. The TPT card will allow me to purchase more exciting lessons and activities for them to do. Throughout my career I have always said "If they like coming to school they will learn". These materials will help to create a fun and exciting learning environment to help create their lifelong love of learning!
