My Students

As a kindergarten teacher of 25 years in the same Title I school, I have seen so much change. This year, many of my students attend before/after school care and so time with family is very limited. I feel it is my job to provide a clean, safe, and secure place for them to learn and succeed during the school day. My students are eager and excited for their first experience in school and I want to create an environment that reflects this and much more.. I want students t to share with each other and to feel free to express themselves. I want to build confidence in my students by providing a warm welcoming classroom that they want to come back to everyday.

My Project

I have begun to convert my classroom to one of more flexible seating then your standard desks and chairs. I can not believe with the few pieces I have how much of a difference it as made i their attitudes and effort.

Everyone wants to go to the library and read in one of the comfy cozy seats.

I just need more areas in the room to create comfy cozy areas for learning. These seats will allow them to move around the room to set up partner reading spots as well as cooperative learning activities. Goal is comfort in the classroom!
