My Students

My classroom consists of fourteen mixed age groups of three-, four-, and five- year-old students who attend a full day preschool program that encourages each individual's learning needs through play. The students in my class work extremely hard all day long through play by working together and problem solving. They are always excited to learn new things and go on new adventures in our classroom especially through reading. My students come from families who work hard and want the best opportunities for their children. My class are amazing students who put a smile on my face every day and motivate me to be the best possible teacher!

My Project

My children need supplies to help them use their imagination to build. My students love to create structures using Magna-Tiles. Magna-Tiles give the children a chance to create houses, castles, and shapes. These tiles allow them to create and design different structures. They can use the tiles by themselves or with a group of peers. In block area my students also love dinosaurs and other animals. Block Mates will allow my students to create dinosaurs and other animals using basic unit blocks. The children can make familiar animals or create new ones using the Block Mates. These materials will allow my students to explore colors and shapes, problem solve, and work together with their peers.
