My Students

My students are full of life and energy! They never let a rainy day get them down. We are always trying to find new ways to learn! They love to play games and have hands-on experiences. Some of their favorite things to do in the classroom are singing, counting, and drawing. I love seeing them comprehend new lessons and understand new teaching concepts.

We are full of many different backgrounds and lifestyles, but when we are here, we are family!

I always enjoy seeing them come together and recognize they are all a part and have value in this world. It is a great reminder of why I do what I do!

My Project

Students will be given a hands-on experience to help develop interests in careers to help grow future hard working citizens. Students will learn important social skills through role playing to help prepare them for future careers in the community.

Students will learn of different areas of work and learn how each person, no matter their job, makes a difference in our world.

Having many options of costumes will help broaden the possibilities of careers in each child’s future.

Since Covid-19 has happened, there have been few opportunities for students to see many jobs in action. By having the materials to act out these jobs, students will be able to play and learn different ways they can be helpful in the community.
