With new COVID restrictions, masks are part of the new norm. While necessary, they create barriers for some students to access language and learning. Masks with clear plastic to see mouths will allow my students who are just beginning to learn English to see how teachers form new sounds and words. These masks will also allow me to ensure students are forming sounds and words correctly as they learn. Just as importantly, these masks will allow me to share smiles with students at a time when hugs and high-fives are sadly a thing of the past. The stools will allow for a flexible seating option in the absence of rugs and bean bag chairs. These masks will provide my students with academic and socio-emotional support as we start the year.
