My Students

My students are creative, diverse, and full of curiosity! They love hands-on, active, engaging projects that allow them to problem solve and learn about themselves and the world around them! We choose love in everything that we do and our students show courage by coming to school every day, eager to learn!

Each child in my classroom loves learning, although the method and environment in which they learn best may vary.

We incorporate a variety of learning strategies and learning options to ensure that each student's needs are met. They are truly an incredible group, and I am so lucky and thankful to have such a wonderful group of learners!

My Project

In the hands-on Science Center, students are encouraged to ask questions, experiment, analyze, and problem solve. These items will allow every student to make self discoveries to spark their curiosity through the use of their senses and real life objects.

It is important for preschool students to learn about themselves and the world around them through real-life experiences.

Students will be able to explore colors, learn how magnets work, see how things sink/float, compare objects by visually seeing how things are similar or different, listen to various sounds, and feel various textures. They will also help with their language and building vocabulary too! And the bins will help me keep them all organized so that they don't get mixed up and lost!
