My Students

As a teacher in a low-income/high poverty school district, my students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite the many challenges they face, I am looking to keep things simple and provide my students with creative and meaningful learning experiences.

My students are creative, clever and very spontaneous.

They like to move, they love to read and love lots of positive attention. Many of them are being raised in single-parent households and receive a free lunch based on their socioeconomic status. These things may prevent them from getting ahead early in life and may not provide them with the life experiences many of us see as typical. From the minute they walk in the door of my classroom, I focus on their potential and growth while they are with me. I may not be able to control their home lives; however, I can certainly control their experience during the school day. By doing this in a creative and positive way, I am hoping to inspire even our earliest learners to continue on a path of academic excellence.

My Project

From outdoor play to our new unit on transportation our little minds are moving and grooving. We have been using our outdoor play as not only for gross motor skills but fine motor skills with our foundation skills of numbers and letters integrated. Music and building are our two favorite indoor activities. Bringing in new music instruments for these tots to experience helps build their background of instruments for their future music classes. I have seen my students minds turning, exploring and absorbing the ways magna tiles can be used - this expansion pack would help them be more "mobile". Adding more outdoor materials such as balls, chalk and bubbles with give them new outlets to explore and independently interact.
