My Students

I have such a wonderful group of five and six year olds in my class! They are happy to be at school, eager to help out in any way, and full of fun.

My class is made up of 19 incredible little learners.

They are so polite and caring towards one another. My students get along very well together and I love their natural love for learning. I feel so thankful that I get to be their teacher this year!

My Project

Please help my current and future students become Sight Word Stars!

With this large magnetic easel and the magnetic sight words, we will be able to practice our kindergarten sight words in so many new and interesting ways!

Kids love coming up in front of the class to demonstrate their knowledge. I know that they will love being able to touch and manipulate their sight words on this easel.

The other side of this easel has pre-drawn handwriting lines. This would be so helpful during my handwriting lessons! In my classroom, I do not have much chalkboard space to demonstrate handwriting. This easel has a lot of space so that I could show proper letter formation and even have space so my students can practice forming the letters as well.
