My Project
Help me make kindergarten an unforgettable year filled with endless fun and learning. Kindergarten is SO important in that we are laying the math and literacy foundational blocks to help our students succeed far beyond the classroom. Help me supplement our existing math and literacy curriculum as well as purchase science and social studies resources!
I hope to instill a love for school and learning within each of my students.
Along with all the fun, educational games that help reinforce learning, I hope to create STEM activity bins for students to strengthen fine-motor skills and let their imagination run wild. Additionally, with the $200 TeachersPayTeachers (TPT) gift card, I hope to purchase a decodable reader bundle worth $50 which will be used as supplemental, decodable text for our at-grade level and above-grade level small groups, a years worth of kindergarten center activities on sale for $32 which will be used to add variety to our intentional play/centers time, a phonics intervention kit worth $17 which will be used with our below grade level small groups, and a year-long kindergarten science/social studies curriculum worth $99 which will serve as the only science and social studies resources provided to students. I provided the links to the TPT items below for you to check out - they would be awesome in supplementing our existing curriculum.
With our diverse group of students and quickly rising number of English Learners, these activities will foster both academic growth and a love for learning and school.
More than half of students from low‑income households
