My Project

One of the things I love most about my Pre-K students is their natural curiosity and enthusiasm. Every day, they arrive eager to explore, ask questions, and make sense of the world around them. They learn best through visuals, hands-on activities, and structured routines that help them feel safe and confident as learners. Watching their faces light up when they make a new connection or master a new skill is the most rewarding part of my job.

At this age, students rely heavily on visual cues and organization to help them understand new concepts.

A Store-It-All Teaching Center would be a game-changer for our classroom. It would allow me to create a designated space for anchor charts, picture cues, vocabulary cards, and learning tools, all displayed in a clear, consistent, and accessible way. With this type of centralized setup, students would always know where to look for support during instruction, transitions, and independent work.

Not only would the Teaching Center benefit my students, but it would also support my growth as an educator. I’m striving to become more of a "Type A" teacher, highly organized, intentional, and efficient with classroom space and systems. The Store-It-All Teaching Center would give me the structure I need to plan, prep, and display materials with purpose, so I can spend less time managing clutter and more time focused on what matters, engaging with my students.

This tool would help bring order, consistency, and clarity to our learning environment, and in a Pre-K classroom, that makes all the difference.
