My Students

Hello everyone! I am a passionate kindergarten teacher trying to help her students get more engaging activities for her classroom! My students are 5-6 years old and love to move and complete hands-on activities in the classroom throughout the day. Unfortunately, due to teaching at a private school previously, I did not have enough options to bring with me to my current school. My hope is to get activities so that each student can have multiple options throughout the units we are learning!

My Project

My goal is to provide my students with engaging lessons. I would appreciate the supplies listed to help ensure a hands-on experience during our centers time. The kids LOVE literacy and math puzzles, so my hope is that these materials provide those hands-on center time for them.

I also love some interactive read alouds for my students to help teach them different life lessons.

With Covid and everything happening in our world, I am finding that the students are having various emotions that they do not know how to work through. By giving them interactive read alouds, we can address as a class emotions and feelings that maybe all students are feeling but are too shy to speak up about! Any support towards my project is forever appreciated!
