I teach 23 curious, creative, and energetic Kindergartners each day! It is my purpose to teach them to love school and become lifelong learners! I teach at an enrichment school that believes all students can learn when given the right tools. I know all students learn differently, so I incorporate art and movement in my classroom regularly to aid our math, reading, and writing lessons. Through the use of technology, music, and small group teaching I am able to effectively teach all of my students, and meet each one on his or her current level. This enables all of my students to feel successful and to show growth and progress! As a Kindergarten teacher, I am thrilled to share with you the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of my kinder babies! Thank you for supporting my classroom!!
