 I will use a variety of teaching methods, including storytelling, visuals, and hands-on activities, to create a dynamic learning environment. Each class will include interactive elements to keep students engaged and foster a love for reading. My teaching style is warm, encouraging, and interactive. I believe in creating a supportive atmosphere where children feel comfortable participating and expressing themselves. I adapt lessons based on student interests and needs, ensuring everyone can thrive.

Students will have ample opportunities to interact with me and their peers through:

Storytelling and Discussions: Engaging questions and conversations about the story to encourage participation.
Games and Activities: Fun, interactive games that reinforce literacy skills, promoting collaboration and social skills.
Show-and-Tell: Opportunities for children to share their favorite books and ideas.
This class aims to provide a comprehensive and enjoyable learning experience that prepares children for kindergarten while fostering their love for reading and storytelling!
