My Students

I am the Kinderversity teacher at a charter school in Gilbert. My students are gifted kindergarten students, whose academic levels range from Kindergarten to 3rd grade. I anticipate after COVID-19 that these students will need additional educational support. The more hands-on learning activities kindergartners participate in, the higher their success rate.

My students are amazing; they are eager to learn and love challenging projects!

My Project

Our current Circle Time rug needs a one way ticket out of our classroom... It's done its job and has been very loved. The new and improved model is perfect for our "Living Room." The large carpet will be placed in the front of the classroom and used as a gathering site during mini-lessons and share time.

The specific seating spots on the rug will help my kindergarteners be able to focus better and therefore learn more!

Circle Time is such a huge part of our daily routine. Whether it's reading, language arts, or mini-lessons on other subjects, my students are often times preoccupied by not having a specific spot to sit on. This rug will be perfect for them! Research shows that Circle Time not only helps children build appropriate social skills, but also gives them a structured learning environment which is directly correlated to success throughout their education. Thank you for supporting my kiddos!
