Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

The students I serve are at risk preschoolers. This means that they are projected to start Kindergarten significantly behind their peers socially, emotionally, and/or academically. That's why the service I provide to my students is so important.

My little ones come to me so excited to learn and experience everything Pre-K has to offer and I want to ensure, that even virtually, they get the most out of this school year from the very start!

My Project

My goal is to provide my students materials they can be used NOW (while we meet virtually) and provide items for them to use LATER when it is safe for us return to the classroom.

Pre-K students learn best through hands on activities.

I want to use these resources to make interactive binders. Every child will get a binder with three sections - Literacy, Math, and Parent Resources. The students can use these binders for hands on activities while I’m teaching them emergent writing skills, phonics, and math skills via the computer. The card stock will make the pages durable to withstand use by four year olds and page protectors will be used to make some pages like name tracing/writing reusable as dry erase boards and the dividers will help parents and student navigate the binder. The supply kits will consist of pencils, pencil grippers to help with proper pencil grip since I won’t be there to hold their hands, age appropriate scissors they snap back until the kiddos learn to do it them selves, glue sticks, dry erase markers, crayons that parents can pick up for their child to use during our virtual lessons. I don’t want access to materials to be a hindrance to virtual learning. The students in the program I teach for are at risk preschoolers. I want to give them every opportunity to be successful "NOW N' LATER" virtual or not!
