I love going to my preschool each week! I have been at the same preschool for a few semesters now, so I have really gotten to know a lot of the staff that work at my site. At first, they were a little unsure about what role I could have in the classroom, but now they understand that I am there to help with any extra work that they need. I usually end up playing with the kids during center time, reading to them before carpet activities, or dancing with them during music. I also help out with kids that need extra one-on-one time or help.

I love being able to see the kids week after week, and it’s such a great time to take a break from my busy schedule. The kids have grown so much over the year, and it’s so interesting to see how they learn and change so much. For example, at the beginning of the year, they struggle with learning letters and numbers, or sitting still during carpet time. Now, they know when to follow along with the teacher, and many of them can write their name or even read short words! I can’t wait to see how much they will learn by the end of the year, and how much they will grow!
