My Students

My students are bright and inquisitive children who are eager to learn and share new experiences. For many of them this is the first time they are in a structured learning program with other children their own age.

I want to give them multiple opportunities to reinforce new skills and eliminate the need for making large amounts of copies.

I hope to give them a strong foundation for them to build future skills. My goal is to provide them with a love of learning for a lifetime and success.

My Project

In Kindergarten, we use so much paper to reproduce information for homework, study sheets, and writing pages. I would like to print information, when I can, only once. Allowing students to repeat a skill will help them in attaining new information. Having a laminator would help greatly.

I strongly believe that our environment needs to be preserved for our future generation, and we must utilize our resources to help protect our planet.

Utilizing a laminator will allow me to print vital word cards, pictures, shared reading work, and math concepts that can then be practiced erased and used again and again.
