My Students
How cute are my little ones? I have the opportunity to educate these young minds, and I couldn't be any more excited! My students are a part of the CMES community, being one of five Kindergarten classrooms, serving in a high-poverty area where 100% of our students receive free meals.
“Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better, it's not." - Dr. Seuss
CMES is a wonderful learning community, however, the struggle lies with providing our students with the classroom resources they deserve! CMES is a School of Mathematics, dedicated to providing students with rigorous and meaningful learning opportunities, and is continually looking for ways to enhance not only the educational experience for every child but also extending the same love and support into their daily lives beyond "these four walls". In fact, that is this Kindergarten teacher's mission, and this is where it starts. With varying skill sets, ways of learning, home environments, and access to technology, these Kindergarten kiddos are in need of nourishment through education.
Thank you for donating to my classroom as it contributes to positively impacting these little lives! It is truly appreciated!
My Project
Remote learning can sometimes place an overwhelming amount of pressure on teachers and their students! While teaching virtually, lessons must be engaging. Students should be able to learn through a variety of instructional strategies and hands-on learning, especially during Science and Social Studies lessons.
"TELL me and I forget, TEACH me and I remember, INVOLVE me and I learn"- Benjamin Franklin.
Scholastic Magazine subscriptions can provide students with hard copy and a digital copy of monthly Science and Social Studies themed magazines. The subscriptions feature nonfiction texts to get the students excited about learning, fascinating videos to help build their knowledge, and access to interactive educational games so students can show what they know. In addition, I will have access to simple hands-on activities to guide students in their learning during our scheduled Science and Social studies time. This hands-on learning approach is sure to spark their curiosity!
Using the Scholastic Magazine subscription and digital 'center' activities to be purchased with the TPT gift card, I will be able to provide my students with individualized learning activities that meet their social-emotional needs and will provide them with meaningful school work that is focused on keeping them INVOLVED!
