My Students

I have such a wonderful group of five and six year olds in my class! They are happy to be at school, eager to help out in any way, and full of fun.

My class is made up of 19 incredible little learners.

They are so polite and caring towards one another. My students get along very well together and I love their natural love for learning. I feel so thankful that I get to be their teacher this year!

My Project

I love to have my class on the carpet for our discussions. We gather there to discuss books, writing, calendar, math, show & tell, and much more!

This easel/dry erase board will help my students with their reading and writing!

I have a very small easel on my carpet area currently, and on a daily basis I wish it was larger. I know that I would not feel limited with sentence writing and all the things we use our easel for if I had a larger dry erase space. My students love getting to come up to the dry erase board and showing us what they know as well!

I would love a bulletin board in our hallway to showcase our "Star Student" each week. Each week, I choose a student to decorate a poster telling us all about themselves. Having a special student to show off really helps the kids to feel special and like an important part of our classroom.
