My Students

At our school, we educate young students in 3K & Pre-K. Our students come to us at different levels and ability. We strive to support and educate our students across various curriculum, and my focus is Physical Education, which plays a big part in child development.

Our students come from diverse backgrounds and cultures.

Some are attending school for the first time, while others are joining us after completing another pre-school program.

I run a Physical Education program that focuses on early childhood development and motor skills. Students will be growing and learning in my classroom using many different skills, enhancing gross and fine motor skills, building strength & endurance, and hopefully starting a love for taking part in physical activity.

My Project

Over the past few years while working in the 3K/Pre-K program, I have tried my best to give my students a variety of play when they come into my gymnasium. I try to teach my students a variety of physical activity that will promote their strength, fine & gross motor ability, and endurance. My lessons focus on developing body awareness and building an enjoyment of physical activity. These materials will help me to introduce fitness activities to young students and hopefully start a love of fitness activity and being healthy.
