My Project

As a second year teacher, I am bursting with excitement to bring in new activities to match the needs of my students. After learning the do's and don'ts of the classroom, I have been brainstorming on how best to support my students and what kinds of supplies will help us achieve that goal.

Our classroom rug would be a place for our class to meet multiple times a day, discuss during community circle, and a comfy place to curl up with a book.

This is definitely our class's biggest need. Next, kindergarten is full of learning how to get along with the people around you and figuring out how to understand your own needs and emotions. The SEL book set of "A Little Spot" covers emotions of frustration, disappointment, happiness, jealousy, etc and will lead us in conversations about these feelings.
