Learning does not happen in isolation. Students need to work and think together, especially after more than a year of working independently. Heterogenous groups, especially in my co-taught classes, allow students who are struggling to learn from those students who are more proficient. When reading and analyzing text, students need the tools to highlight and annotate. Students need to practice mind-mapping and hexagonal thinking to build connections. Students have had more than enough of technology. Hands-on approaches to learning and collaboration are what is needed most now. The materials I selected will help with the everyday operations of our classroom as well as when students are collaborating in groups and working individually. Additional supplies were included that will help to reward students and keep them engaged with the content of the class.
