My Project
The items in my project focus on three main elements: social emotional learning, flexible seating, and phonics growth.
I believe that my Kindergarteners will be set up for success with a classroom focused on their social emotional development, as it aligns with our content and curriculum.
Using these social emotional tools, and flexible seating, I aim to create an environment that is safe and comfortable for my Kindergarten learners.
I have also included a few tools to help build essential phonetic skills, which will set my students up for success in every aspect of their academic development. These tools will help make phonics hands-on and engaging each day during our valuable center time.
With a strong foundation, supported by the materials in this DonorsChoose, I hope to use my own passion and joy to inspire my students to be thoughtful, kind friends, and energetic, lifelong learners.
