The Best Parts of My Job
The students are the best part of my job. I love being with kindergarteners and helping them learn. I love when they have “lightbulb” moments when they begin to read. Kindergarteners have the funniest things to say and I love it!
Favorite Read Aloud Books
- Arnie the Donut by Laurie Keller- the kids LOVE this one!
- Chicks and Salsa by Aaron Reynolds
- Any Eric Carle book
- I love reading different versions of classic stories like The Gingerbreadman, Little Red Riding Hood, The Three Little Pigs, etc. I have a lot of versions of these and they are so fun to read to the kids!
