My Students

My students are eager to learn. Children who are eager to learn need to be offered varied instructional opportunities . Kindergarten is where many of our students will develop their lifelong love of learning and technology will give them the tools to explore new information.

As an educator I strive to create an exciting environment where we take chances, discover, and excel.

Building a strong foundation is the key to future learning success. Without that strong start, the foundation of education will crumble. My ultimate goal is to give students a lifetime love of learning for their future success.

My Project

The materials I am requesting will help my students in both traditional pencil and paper writing, while the wipe off material will help teach them the importance of saving our resources wherever possible.

Having the wipe off boards available to my students allows them to take chances and not be afraid to not get it right the first time.

A wipe off board allows mistakes to quickly be corrected and tried again.

It also allows me to stress the importance of keeping our earth beautiful by doing what we can to better our world. Doing even our small part will have an impact.
