My Students

I work with a great group of preschool students who come from varying ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds. Our students come in every morning enthusiastic and ready to learn. They are a very energetic, talkative, and fun-loving group who love to ask questions. Our school is located in a low-income community. We strive to provide a safe learning environment for our students.

Hands-on learning is what our energetic students need to succeed.

We are trying to provide more of this learning style to prepare our students for higher grades to come. Our goal is to provide our students with a preschool learning experience that they will carry with them for years to come.

My Project

Our classroom went from only having 10 students in person last year to 19 this year! We are so excited to be back in the classroom with the students, but it has taken a toll on some of our classroom materials. We are looking to replace and update some items in various areas in our room. This project will help us update our Writing, Language, Art and Small Toy areas.

We love being creative when we are reading, writing and creating new art projects.

This project includes materials to help us write letters and build words, work on our fine motor skills, paint beautiful pictures and much more. We really appreciate any support for our students to continue learning while having fun in our classroom.
