My Students

My classroom is a beautiful rainbow of students. They come from all walks of life and many of them are entering a classroom for the very first time.

Our school is very diverse and we like to celebrate our differences!

My students are in school for the first time and we work hard to start their school career on the right foot!

Our school is a Title I school and most of my students are walking into their educational careers with odds against them but they don't let that get in their way. These kids work very hard and love to learn! Each day is new and exciting for all students!

My Project

Kinder students are eager and excited to learn. In order to reach students from all learning abilities, hands on exploration and art are essential.

The easel will help students express themselves through their artwork and learn about different styles of painting.

The magic boards will help students develop their fine motor skills and be more engaged with their learning because of the tactile function of the magic boards.

The play-doh tools will help students create models of not only letters and numbers, but it will allow them to create their own sculptures. It will also help to develop students fine motor skills by gripping the tools and rolling them.
