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 centers for my kindergarten students to participate in throughout our days. My students love them, too! They are always asking when it is going to be center time. I have always hoped to have a listening center in my classroom. I had a very generous friend gift me a nice set of headphones this year and I am so excited to put them to use!

My old CD player won't work with the headphones, so I am asking for a new CD player and a storage box to keep everything in.

I know my students would be thrilled to be able to receive this!
