My Students

My students range from 3-5 years old and are able to qualify for our preschool by either having a developmental delay or being low income. This program gives children from all cultures, areas, abilities and various incomes an opportunity to learn and thrive within the district. My energetic preschoolers enter the classroom ready to learn, discover, and explore. They love being exposed to so many different experiences and opportunities and gleam with pride and excitement at learning new skills. They are an amazing group of kids!

My Project

We currently have a light table in our classroom and want to offer some new opportunities for our students to find new ways to utilize the light table. This will offer new opportunities for them to build and create as well as work on academic skills such as letter recognition, shape recognition, and number recognition. It also gives them sensory opportunities to work on hand eye coordination, spatial reasoning, measurement, etc. The light table is one of the most popular areas in our classroom and this will give our students new opportunities to check it out.
