This is my 3rd year teaching, and I continue to love it more each year. I adore teaching my five and six-year-old kindergarten students. My school is primarily low-income families that face many challenges on a daily basis.
My class consists of 20 amazing students.
Of those 20, three are English Learners, and three are students with disabilities. Having such a diverse class with many different needs can be challenging. No matter the challenge, I strive to provide my students with a safe, supportive, and nurturing environment.
My Project
Our kindergarten day is full of structure and rigorous learning. My students need a chance to play. These items will be used to give my students the opportunity to play for indoor recess as well as brain breaks. These materials will give my students the opportunity to learn how to play appropriately and learn problem-solving skills.
Children learn so much through play!
My students only have regular chairs to sit in which do not help with my "wiggly" students. I have students with ADHD and they struggle to sit in chairs. These items will give my students with high energy an alternative seating option.
