My Students

My class is full of energetic, excited, and curious preschool students. My students are between the ages of 3 and 5 years old and are working extremely hard to prepare themselves for kindergarten. We are a classroom filled with unique students who are all working at different levels. Many of my students have special needs that require extra room and equipment which means we are currently bursting at the seams. My students are creative, thoughtful, and full of questions! They absolutely love hands-on, messy activities.

My Project

We recently expanded our class to an additional classroom due to the amount of new students we will soon be getting. My number of students has continued to grow and with this we needed additional space. This is amazing but has left my rooms looking a little empty. We are needing supplies and toys to fill the rooms and to engage our new students. Some items we need double of so that we can have them in both classrooms. Bringing new and exciting toys into the classroom help to keep the students focused and engaged in learning.
