My Project

KIndergarten is an amazing grade to teach. I love watching the excitement on my student's faces when they learn something new. Helping them learn to read and write throughout the year and watching their growth truly makes me smile.

The students are exploring books and the excitement of reading.

Having beginning reading books that build their confidence as readers is so important. These books will help develop those beginning reading skills and provide them with successful reading experiences and enjoyment. Being able to provide a variety of books will only help these readers grow.
