My Students

My 15 energetic kindergarten students are ready for a successful school year in person. The best way of doing that is by providing them with different technology to use throughout the day. We do many activities throughout the day and try to reach all the students' different learning styles. "The beautiful thing about learning is that no one can take it away from you." -B.B. King

My students' learning styles and needs are as diverse as their backgrounds, but they all have the yearning to be successful.

Many families of our school have been in the school district for generations. I myself went to this school as a student and I am now teaching in it.

My Project

Help keep my students minds engaged and active. The water bottles and snacks will provide the students with water and energy throughout their school day. We will be doing lots of movement activities using the dry erase circles, markers, and erasers to keep their minds engaged in learning our curriculum.

Kindergarten students are active in play, thinking, moving, and keeping their hands busy.

The ornaments and puppets will be used to keep their hands busy and moving while learning. The health and wellness is important in our students so we can create a positive learning environment for all.
