My Project

I am blessed to work with the best kindergarten students! These 5 and 6 year olds are so excited to be at school and love to learn! One of our favorite parts of the day is snack and story time! Having a full tummy and listening to your teacher read a storybook is the best way to end the day!

We have access to some picture books, but often we have to watch our stories with others reading them on our smartboard.

I would love to grow our classroom library and our snack cabinet. It would make my heart happy to know I am sending my kiddos home with a full tummy and a good story in their mind!
