First Day of School

Today is the first day of school!  I woke up feeling happy, excited, and so very nervous!  This is my first year of teaching and I am so ready to begin my teaching career!

My sister teaches kindergarten too!  She's an incredible teacher and has been a huge inspiration to me!  So fun because we both start school today!  #RossGirlsTakeOnKinder

IPSF Summer Enrichment Academy

This summer I'm teaching "Jumpstart Kindergarten" at the IPSF Summer Enrichment Academy.  It's been a lot of fun!  Each day we learn a new alphabet letter and do a little letter-related craft.  We also practice the numbers and shapes.  The program is pretty awesome, it gives students some exposure to the social and academic aspects of a classroom environment.

I taped paint bags onto the small back table so students could practice writing letters.  We made pattern snakes on our letter S day.

I used sheet protectors so students could practice writing with expo markers.  The days are short but we really get so much done each day!  I'm loving this enrichment program!
