My Students

I am so lucky to have the honor of spending my days with such a special Kindergarten class. I fall in love with my students every year, yet I have fallen for this class pretty fast. They are a very special bunch. They have such positive attitudes. They laugh, sing, and dance. They make every day better.

These students deserve the best-they are respectful, responsible, and hard working.

They have a positive outlook on life, and they always make me smile.

My Project

These beanbags will give our classroom comfortable seating in our library/reading area. I would like to make the reading area more inviting to encourage students to look at books more. I am trying to increase their interest in reading and having the beanbags would help a lot!

Having a good book and a comfy place to sit is priceless!

Developing an interest in literacy is such an important aspect of ALL learning. It all starts in providing a quality early childhood learning environment. I would like to make a more inviting reading environment. The beanbags will increase the engagement of the students in the reading area this year and in years to come.
