My Project

I have the pleasure of teaching bright, creative, and unique kindergartners in Nevada. They come from diverse backgrounds which adds richness into our classroom learning environment every single day.

My school is a Title 1 school, meaning that most of our students qualify for free or reduced-rate program.

My students are eager learners, full of curiosity, and a pleasure to teach! They love trying new things, exploring different subjects, and making connections through learning!

Having strategic organizational tools such as a storage center and color storage bins will make navigating through classroom routines a breeze. Students will be able to use this storage center and color bins to find the perfect center activity to help them grow in reading and math. Having a CD player and microphone would allow my students to listen to a variety of songs designed to help them learn and retain information in a fun and exciting way. Having a microphone would allow them to record themself while reading or speaking. These items not only improve my students love of learning but also improve their confidence and independence.
