My Students

Welcome to my Pre-K classroom! We are a happy group of 4-year-olds who are eager and happy to learn! Can you hear us singing? Can you hear us playing? We are ready to learn and succeed!

We are an inviting and curious group of children!

Science is our favorite subject because we LOVE animals! We are an attentive group that lives in the Harlem neighborhood of NYC. We are a Title I school and many of us come from further neighborhoods just to be a part of our fabulous school.

My Project

My students were so excited to receive two MacBook Air laptops. To get our computer center up and running we need a few additional items including a printer, cases for the laptops, and earphones.

The cases will preserve the computers for countless students to use for many years to come.

The computers are utilized by 4 and 5 year olds and there is always the chance that the students might drop them and they might potentially break. The earphones will allow my students to utilize the computers without disturbing their classmates. Students at this age are often distracted and having these headphones will help the other students to focus on their own activities rather than being disrupted.
