My Project

Kindergarten is where most children’s school experiences begin and I intend on making my students year special and fun by providing unique experiences. In kindergarten, we lay our students literacy foundation so they can continue to be successful throughout their elementary careers. Having a listening center where students can learn to follow along with books, while listening to the words, will contribute to that goal. It will have a major impact on language development, as well as make an influence on my English Language Learning students. It is my first year as a teacher and I want to give my students the best experiences, please consider donating, thank you !
