My Students
This school year, 2021-2022, is my first year as an ESL kindergarten teacher. Due to the pandemic, many of my students are experiencing school in person for the first time ever. They are thrilled to be back at school and learning in the classroom. Many of them have a strong desire to learn, but a language barrier makes learning more challenging. However, they never say that they cannot do something. They always try their best and are not afraid to get things wrong. As we know, Kindergarten will set the foundation for their educational journey and with a strong foundation my students will be able to strive for and achieve greatness.
My Project
These materials will allow students to learn through hands on experiences. For example, my students can expand their letter sound and recognition skills by utilizing the crayon word building set. My students can also decompose and compose numbers by using the magnetic ten frame boards. The double sided magnetic boards will aid my students in manipulating words during phonics. The magnetism of these boards will allow students to hold up their work and show the class without destroying their work. The colorful timer can help my students become more autonomous during certain parts of the day, because it can be student operated. There are a lot of great tools in this project that can help the students really dive into their learning and make the most out of their time in the classroom this year.
