My Students

My preschool students are 3 to 5 year olds and come to school eager to learn. My students come from low-income families who appreciate and value teachers. 100% of my students receive free breakfast and lunch. Coming to school to be greeted by smiling faces makes me love my job even more!

It is important to keep my preschoolers excited and passionate about learning new topics every day.

Preschool is the first step to creating a positive environment at school for children. It is a new transition and can be difficult to get used to. Luckily, I am part of a marvelous preschool team. We enjoy what they do and help create a warm, caring, and hands-on learning environment where our students feel free to explore through play every day in our classes.

My Project

"Sports do not build character. They reveal it."- Heywood Broun.

I hope to be able to teach my preschoolers how to play golf and most importantly how to be a team player.

My preschoolers are extremely interested in sports and love playing basketball, football, and soccer. However, I want to introduce a new sport known as “golf” to my students. Golf club sets and a golf club house would help sharpen my students teamwork, hand eye coordination, and gross motor skills.

I plan to use the playhouse to turn into a golf club house. Golfers can come to get golf clubs and balls before heading to the "greens" our grass area to play a round of golf. I also plan to use the golf club house as the last special golf hole for golfers to make their last swing. Thank you in advance for supporting my students to be healthy while exercising and learning a new sport. Who know, maybe the next Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Jack NIcklaus, Annika Sorenstam, Babe Didrikson Zaharias is in my class.
