My Students

My current class is the very first group of kindergarteners I’ve ever had. I’ve always dreamt of being a kindergarten teacher and these little ones have captured my heart.

The students in my class are the sweetest little people I have ever met!

They desire to be kind and helpful to me and their classmates and they love to give compliments. I am so thankful that I am their teacher.

My Project

My wiggly, little kindergarteners currently have no other option than to sit in a chair or stand when they need to throughout the day. Kindergarteners need to be able to move into a comfortable position, but still have a defined space to call their own.

These lap trays and foam squares will provide a safe space for my students to keep their learning materials while providing the opportunity for them to be comfortable.

Students will be able to have all of their materials with them at their spot and will not have to sanitize their items as frequently as it will be their very own safe space.
