My Students

I am opening a new classroom at our center this school year! My classroom consists of enthusiastic and inquisitive young learners with active imaginations and kind hearts. Some of the children are English language learners while encountering their first classroom setting. I strive to create a safe and supportive environment for my students with a focus on literacy and language development. As a class, the foundation for learning is set through small group literacy, art, mathematics, and science activities, while balancing the school day with social-emotional problem-solving and self-help practices. Thank you for your contributions and kindness towards our class!

My Project

These puzzles and train track sets will help our preschoolers to work through challenges, strengthen fine motor skills and build language. They will also promote social-emotional growth through working with peers and moving through frustration and difficulty one step at a time.

Puzzles support children in developing persistence and problem-solving skills.

Children figure out how things work and what adjustments they can make as they put them together and make connections. Please support our children in becoming amazing problem solvers and confident learners at our blocks, games and manipulative centers.
