We have almost 70% free lunch and were just given a grant to implement free breakfast for every student, every day. We do not have any multi-family housing zoned for our school, so our transiency rate is fairly low. I teach in a middle-class neighborhood, with some families on the higher end of middle class and many on the lower end of middle class.
If you don’t know me, let me quickly introduce myself…Hi! I’m Abigail (Abbie) and I teach full-day kindergarten in Las Vegas, Nevada. These are just a few things that I do in my classroom that work during that first week of kindergarten. While I would love to say, please come back and read this post before every school year, the reality is that every group of students is different. I think we can all agree that each year in kindergarten is unique and for the most part, we as teachers do not know what is going to walk through those doors on the first day of school.
