My Students

My kindergarten students are extremely eager to learn after a year and a half of being at home, they enjoy coming to school to learn and engage with their peers daily. I love to see them in the mornings, coming in and asking "what are we going to learn today." Their little brains are thirsty for knowledge and they are curious about everything. Their thirst to learn pushes me to be a better teacher and making sure that I do all that I can to prepare them for the years to come.

My Project

As the second half of this school year begins my students are excited to learn and continue to build on the foundation that was built in the first semester. The different games I have placed on my class list will help my students to better understand what we are learning in whole group and will be used in centers as they work with their classmates. The cleaning supplies will help me to make sure that my students are learning in a clean and safe environment seeing that we are in a pandemic. The snacks will be used for our fuel up time (snack time) , because lets be honest who can focus on an empty stomach. I will be using the printer and paper to print off homework packets but also it will be used to make centers for my class. I want to thanks you in advance for your contribution to my students success.
