My Students

I am a new teacher, so I do not know who my students will be this year. However, as a substitute teacher in the past, I have had the opportunity to know what to expect in a Kindergarten class. I know that they will be excited to start school and begin their new adventure. I am also excited to start this school year. I know I will have a class full of creativity, energy and learning. I also know that my students will need many different supplies to ensure they have a productive year.

My Project

I need hands on learning centers for my students. My class needs Magna Tiles and Legos. My students are energetic Kindergarteners that learn from exploring and building. I am a new teacher who does not have a lot of resources at this time. I need activities for them to use for learning and cooperation.

My class also needs a printer.

I am lucky to have technology in the class but my students do not have a way to print work. I also would like a printer so I can print documents and activities in my classroom.

Having these new materials would truly make my class a more productive place.
