My Students

I teach in a preschool classroom for low income families in Indiana. My students range from 3-5 years old. We have a variety of abilities in our room including special needs students.

My students play hard at learning every day!

They are working toward the goal of going to kindergarten next year and are very excited about the prospect.

My group of preschoolers love to move, make and investigate. They are very active and inquisitive. We have new adventures in our room every day!

My Project

My students have been learning all year. They are already excited about going to the "big school" next year.

I would love for them to have caps and gowns to make their graduation from preschool memorable.

We didn't get to have an in person graduation last year. That will make this year's graduation extra special. They spend much of their time dressing up and pretending to be other people. They will be proud to walk down the aisle wearing their caps and gowns for all their guests to see at graduation!

Please help give my students a wonderful send off to their future education!
