My Students
Developmental kindergarten is such an exciting group of mixed interests, abilities, and goals. Some of my students are learning to read, write, and count, while some of their classmates are learning to imitate sounds or hold a paintbrush or sound out words. Our group loves to play outside, learn new games, and dance.
In this class, we build a community around what we have in common and our shared experiences.
Through our morning meeting time, we get to know one another and learn how to show empathy towards our peers. We are working on building our character, our social-emotional skills, and our intelligence through a developmentally appropriate kindergarten program.
My Project
When you walk into a kindergarten classroom students should be engaged in hands-on, interactive learning. One way to achieve this is through learning centers. With this project, I am hoping to gain necessary materials to implement high quality math centers. Currently, literacy centers are one of my students favorite time of day. They see it as play time, but I know they are also building skills and learning new things. I am very much looking forward to providing this same type of experience for my students in our math block.
Benjamin Franklin once said, "Tell me and I forget, teach me and I remember, involve me and I learn." It is my goal to involve my students in their learning every day.
With activities like magnetic bug toss, fishing for subtraction facts, and learn to count dough mats, students will be involved and engaged in their learning. Double dice are a great way to practice a variety of math skills including addition, subtraction, and place value. These materials will allow me the opportunity to provide my students with games and activities to build number sense and math skills learned during whole and small group lessons.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
