Hands on learning is something I have observed to be the most beneficial to these groups that haven't had a regular school year since the COVID-19 pandemic began. I use technology everyday, and my students love learning with it. I have noticed though that many students need a hands-on approach. They don't know how to communicate or work as a group. They have trouble with problem solving and applying skills physically. Hands-on learning is a great way for students to retain what they are learning. My classroom uses stations biweekly. In our stations, students break apart sentences, practice spelling and vocabulary, and build on their reading skills. One example would be over simple, compound, and complex sentences. After teaching the introductory lesson, I would have key words and phrases on sentence strips. Students would then write on their dry erase boards a sentence and use that phrase or key word to make one of the 3 types of sentences discussed. So if my key word was "so" they might write, "Friday was a snow day, so I didn't have to go to school." Then they would identify that as a compound sentence. These supplies are for in school learning with a focus on station activities and teacher table. Dry erase sheet pockets are great for annotating text. A mobile whiteboard for small groups at the teacher table will make it easier for students to see than on a regular piece of paper. My library is fairly large, so a barcode scanner will be great to use for an easy student check-in and check-out system. These are all beneficial to a classroom and promote learning in multiple ways. My administrations have seen my stations in action and they have granted me approval for this request.
