My Students

My students are incredible four year olds who along with their families have been attending school on a blended schedule model. Most of the families we service come from low socioeconomic status and the epidemic has really put a dent in their budget. Our classroom has been fully remote several times this school year due to covid-19 but every time we reopen our doors our families are waiting with their children. My students have been through a lot already at four years old and I am fortunate to have the opportunity to show them the light in this tunnel.

My students are strong and resilient learners who amidst all the epidemic challenges are striving with their heads held up.

The chaos outside our classroom in the world at large stays a bay, outside our classroom door. Inside the classroom we are laughing, celebrating, and collaborating together along our learning path. I try my very hardest to show my students the joy in learning by tapping into their curiosities and creating lessons reflective of their interests.

Our classroom is a warm and happy place where everyone is welcomed!

My Project

This carpet will enable us to have a new rug in our meeting area. Post covid-era we try to clean and sterilize everything in our classroom. The rug which we currently have was used till the last days before school closed for the covid epidemic, then it was placed in storage during last year and taken out this year.

The rug is an important part of our classroom which we use throughout the day to meet together as a class.

We greet each child every morning and talk about our day at the rug. It is the area which we meet to learn new concepts and continue our units of study. It is where we dance and move during gross motor activities. It is where we read stories and say good-bye at the end of every day.
