Sarah, the Kindergarten Teacher

Sarah is sitting on the floor with fifteen five-year-old children in a circle. Together, they are singing the alphabet as Sarah holds up cards matching the letter that they sing. She has a big smile on her face because she is living her dream.

Her college degree is in early education. Kindergarten is her favorite grade so far while she has been student teaching. It’s her last year of study, and she is very excited to start applying to elementary schools. 

But for now, she claps with the kindergarteners after they finish the letter Z. “Good job, everyone! Back to your tables. Mrs. Green has something very fun planned for you next,” she says. The children scramble to their chairs, eager to find out what’s next.
