My Students

I teach in an early childhood preschool classroom.

In our room, we are a melting pot, including seven different languages and many cultures.

Over 90% of my students are ELL (English language learner) students with several speaking no English at all.

Despite these obstacles, these students are eager to learn and do their best. My students walk into the classroom every day full of life, ready to learn, and excited for what is in store. I want them to know I believe in them and they can do anything.

My Project

We love LEGOs! We use them in small groups for counting, patterning, and fine motor work. We also use light up LEGOs in science center to explore electricity and connections.

We encourage children to use their imaginations and build things they’ve never seen before.

Having an abundance of LEGOs would allow several students to build together and collaborate or to build separately with their own plan. Our students are so excited to get these items, they’ve already planned out what structures they want to build. Thank you for donating to our class and believing in our kids. We couldn’t do it without you.
