My Students

My students are two and three years old. This is the first time most of them are in a school ever! They love to explore and play and pretend. They love to sing and have a dance party. They are always in the kitchen making someone something to eat. They can be found in the block center building a road for their cars and trucks. They are painting their hearts out using brushes or fingers. They are loving every minute of their school day. They are learning and having fun and building friendships all day long.

My students are risk takers and mess makers.

They are confident doers of exciting things. They are not built for desk sitting, their brains crave action. They need play to move and explore!

My Project

This school year promises to be like no other school year we have ever seen. My students will be coming to school some days and will be home learning virtually on other days.

My students and their parents will be working so hard to create a home school connection to continue their education, and I want to be able to help them as much as I can.

These books will allow me to read to my students in person and virtually. The love of reading and learning how a book can take you to a far away place is something everyone must experience. Thank you for helping my students experience it.
