My Students
My students are fun, compassionate, and curious young children. When they arrive at school in the morning, they race to the schedule, excited to find out what is on the agenda for the day.
Every day is fresh, new, and exciting!
Our school is one of the most diverse in the district and is located in a tight-knit community in the heart of San Francisco. Many of my students' cousins, parents, and even grandparents have attended our school!
The community bond shows through as students giggle, play, and learn together throughout the day.
My Project
I am a firm believer in letting kids be kids! My kindergarteners learn best through play and social interaction. Even more importantly, they learn that school and learning should be exciting and fun.
Play-Doh, sand, and foam encourage my students to let their creativity run wild.
Students practice forming letters, numbers, and sight words. They build pizzas, burgers, and ice cream cones to "sell" to one another during choice time. They explore spatial relationships while building houses and castles. The opportunities are endless!
Thank you for helping me provide these high-quality materials to my creative, curious students. I am looking forward to sharing their creations with you!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
