My Students

Every day in Pre K is an adventure! My students' young minds are ready and eager to learn anything and everything. As a teacher in a low-income/high poverty school district, my students are faced with many different challenges both in and out of the classroom. Although my students may face these challenges, I am willing to do whatever it takes to make sure that they feel loved and safe in my classroom.

My students are the most fun and loving group of preschoolers that you will meet!

They are very smart and creative. They love to sing, dance, and learn about letters and numbers. Even though I cannot control my students' home lives, I know that I can provide them with the care and attention they need in order to be successful both in and out of the classroom!

My Project

This lap top will make a huge difference in my students' learning because their education will finally be able to come to life! Instead of using CDs to play songs, we will be able to project songs with words and pictures! We won't have to just use a dry erase board when learning about letters, we will be able to research and find real life things that begin with those letters and then print them for our classroom. This lap top computer will also help all of my special needs students The options will be endless with this laptop and my preschoolers with get the true education that they deserve!
