My Students

My students are full of wonder and curiosity. They are constantly exploring the world around them and learning new things every day. Pre-K is all about hands-on learning and my students love to dig in with all their five senses.

My students come from all different types of backgrounds and cultures.

Many of them have little or no experience with the world around them. Their parents have limited resources and are unable to buy them educational toys to help them progress and succeed. Their main experience comes from my classroom and the trips I take them on.

Even after 17 years of teaching it still amazes me as I watch them grow and learn. Pre-K students have an amazing ability to soak in information. The growth in their maturity and learning is so rapid. The more we expose them to, the more they grow. The metamorphosis throughout the year is absolutely the most incredible sight I have ever seen.

My Project

PreK classrooms are full of different centers to help the children expand their imagination and higher thinking skills. There are so many different tools and activities for them to choose from. The writing center is one of the centers that often goes unseen by the students. They shy away from it. The materials that I have chosen will help catch their eye and encourage them to pick the writing center during choice time.

My students will benefit greatly from the eye catching tools and manipulatives and allow them to improve their fine motor skills which are essential for writing.

They will practice and learn their letters all while having fun, the best way for them to learn!!
