My Students

I am a 4th-year kindergarten teacher! Teaching is my passion and working with the littlest learners is what I have always felt called to do. My classroom is always full of energy and innovation. I go to work daily with the hope I can give each and every one of my students a loving, safe environment to learn!

I teach kindergarten at a Title I school in Texas.

I currently teach both virtual and face to face students during this unprecedented school year we are having!

Most of the students in my district lived through a rough time in their short lives due to the Hurricane in 2017 and are now faced with the uncertainty of the global pandemic, Covid19. However, these students are resilient and eager to learn. Many of these children are unfortunately lacking basic necessities, but they show up every morning trying their best to smile. My students are survivors and they deserve the best!

My Project

By the end of the year our classroom is running low on basic supplies that we need to run smoothly on a daily basis. Wrapping up our school year is always so much fun, but it can get chaotic and costly when we have to stop to buy more office supplies.

I have created this project solely to restock the organizational materials that I use constantly in my classroom.

We use paper clips, binder clips, tape, and staples throughout our school day. I love to have plenty of these items in stock in my classroom cabinets to finish out the year and start the new year out fresh in August!
