My Students

My students are an energetic and hardworking group of children who are motivated to do their best.

I teach an engaged and motivated kindergarten class.

My students are extremely sweet and deserve the best! Although we are an inner city school, I want my students to have access to the same materials, programs, and experiences that students in the suburbs have in their schools. My students come to school each day eager to read and learn! Please help these lovable little learners.

My Project

During our blended learning during math class students work in small groups at centers. My class needs math centers and learning tools to help them work cooperatively while engaging in hands on math. Games like math Zingo or math Bingo are fun ways to engage students in practicing their number sense skills. Other tools such as tens frames and hot dots are also fun hands on ways to make practicing math fun!

We needs fun, engaging, and hands on math centers to use in small groups.

We engage in math centers three days a week. I know my kindergarten kiddos would love to have these fun learning tools in class!
