My Project
I work at a wonderful, rural county school district. I have taught 2nd grade for the past two years but will be moving down to teach Kindergarten starting next year. Most of the incredible students at my school come from low socio-economic backgrounds which means not many of them have a lot of background knowledge about the world around them.
Young students have an innate curiosity about the world around them so, as an educator, it is pivotal to provide students with exposure as early as possible.
It is my desire to provide opportunities for them to use their imagination to problem solve, develop critical thinking skills, and increase their social skills. Along with those life long learning experiences, these imagination stations in my classroom will also help my students learn how to express their emotions in a healthy manner.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
