My Students

I have a class of 21 motivated kindergarteners who love to move and learn. They are goal oriented, and I strive to make learning fun.

Each of my students is a reason I have continued in the education throughout the years.

I am super proud of the progress my class has made socially and academically. We begin each school day with the Pledge of Allegiance and a morning meeting to discuss our day ahead. Kindergarten is an important year for every child.

My Project

My class needs new individual dry erase boards for group time during word work and math. Dry erase boards are a fun learning tool to use in the classroom. The students in my class would be thrilled to have their own boards to use when they start kindergarten this year. The teacher will be able to see instantly if the students understand the lesson that is being taught. This also saves paper, as the dry erase board can be used on a daily basis. I hope that I will be able to have a class set of new dry erase boards for the start of the school year.
