My Project

I love teaching kindergarten! My new students are always energetic, curious and ready to start school! For many of them, this is their first school experience and I want to create an environment where they feel excited, supported and ready to learn. Having the right supplies - like crayons, name tags, scented success stickers, dry erase materials, sentence strips for them to order numbers and story elements, and cardstock - will set the tone for success! These materials will ensure my students have the right tools needed to start the year confidently and stay engaged in learning!

All of these materials will ensure that my students are ready to start the new year organized and ready to go right from the start.

With these supplies provided they can focus on learning! Homework folders will keep them organized and are a great way to stay connected with families. Colored paper and cardstock are great for notes that I want to stand out or for making flashcards. The students need their names on their folders so different name tags per subject are necessary for them to find what they need quickly. Seasonal stickers are always a favorite and encourage them to complete assignments neatly and quickly! In the beginning of the year dry erase materials are essential to give my students a lot of practice tracing letters and numbers.
