My Students

We are a class eager to learn together and play together! Our community comes from a wide variety of backgrounds and needs. My class has a large number of students with disabilities and special needs including ESL, speech, occupational therapy, and physical therapy. These students, along with our regular education students who perform at or above grade level, create a unique learning environment.

My students are Pre-K and Kindergarten students in a next generation learning community.

We have a focus on learning through inquiry topics, as well as providing students with engaging questions to understand the bigger picture. Our school has a focus on multiage classes working together in next generation learning communities.

My Project

My students love imaginative play! I love that they benefit from intellectual and social development. When children are involved in imaginary play, they are investigating and learning about the world around them.

Role-playing helps children build confidence and a sense of self.

My students would benefit from having a doll house added to our classroom. This doll house with furniture and multi-ethnic families would give them an opportunity to role-play family interactions, they will also learn about taking turns, working as a team, sharing ideas and listening. Thank you for considering helping us "Raise the Roof" of our doll house and our imaginations!
