My Students
"The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go." – Dr. Seuss. These fantastic, informational books will be each student's “ticket” to learning about people and “traveling” to places over the summer.
My students are curious about the world around them.
I am proud to teach a very active and inquisitive group of kindergarten students. We are a blended "family" in our classroom. This "family" includes ESOL students, several speech students who receive services for processing and articulation, students with learning and emotional disabilities, and students with other health impairments such as ADHD.
My Project
When students enter our kindergarten classroom, they come with the expectation they will learn to read, solve math equations, and write simple sentences. They are correct. Fortunately, I have many tools to assist them with their learning journey. However, students already have a set of essential tools.
According to Kristen Stooksberry, an OT, "The most important mechanical tools that students bring to the classroom are their hands.
Hand skills are critical for early childhood learning." The items such as the Peg Number Boards will not only allow the students to practice early math skills, they will help strengthen the hands of the students, this hand strength is ESSENTIAL for writing.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
