Hello all! As the end of the summer has finally arrived, and the school year is rapidly approaching- my teaching placement has “changed,” ha! No surprise to many of you, however I will now be accepting a position as a Pre-K Teacher! I will be working alongside a TA, helping to shape and mold the youngest minds of our Education system- Preschoolers! I am ecstatic to accept this position, and even more eager for the school year to begin. Because my position has changed drastically, I have also been able to significantly decrease our goal from from $1,500 to $600! That is awesome news for everyone!

As a Prekindergarten teacher, a great deal of my focus will remain on providing an appropriate environment for my students and their families as they come to visit their growing children- and the future leaders of our country!

Placing a focus on the environment will allow me to ensure that students and their families feel both comfortable and welcome upon entering our classroom! This will be done by placing a focus on Multicultural decor, ensuring that families of all backgrounds will get a glimpse of their culture whether they are dropping their child off for the day, or hanging around to explore this new environment with their incoming preschooler!

I also plan to revitalize my students literacy area. Rather than giving them a small inconspicuous corner in the room, to begin indulging in pre-literacy, I plan to make their reading corner a “Must-come-see!” This will be done by providing students with child-safe beanbags- excellent for indulging in what will be some of their first exposures to books. This area will be comfortable and suitable for up to four children at a time. Along with my TA, we will ensure that these books are often rotated and geared towards the current time of the year, seasons, activities, and the shifting interests of our students.

As you can all see, I cannot wait to begin this journey and to meet my young scholars of the 2017-2018 school year. Thank you all for reading and of course- investing!
