My Students

Math is like going to the gym for your brain. It sharpens your mind.

My students are sweet, innocent, vibrant kindergarteners.

They come from a low income community and many of them do not have the same experiences or opportunities as those children in the suburban areas. Our school has a challenging curriculum and motivates the students to be successful in life.

My Project

Many of my students have never been to any preschool. I begin with the basics. Students need a good math foundation before they can become successful. All the games, charts, learning centers, markers, and activities I have chosen will benefit the development of early math skills such as, counting, sorting, building patterns, using a number line, telling time, measuring, and comparing.

This is going to be my third year in kindergarten and sixth year in education including substitute teaching.

I only want the best for my students and will do whatever it takes to achieve my goals. I want my students to love to learn and grow each and every day. You can help make my classroom a wonderful environment for learning by supporting this project.
