The majority of my students read below grade level. They would benefit from a variety of classroom resources to help increase their success in our distance remote learning platform as well as to set them up for success as we re-enter classrooms. School has been closed since March 13th due to the COVID-19 virus and will remain closed until October. This presents a challenge, as many of my students may not have access to supplies in their homes and with the economic downturn, it will be tough for families to get back to school supplies when school starts back up. My plan is to use the materials in my wish list to create "Google Baggies" that I will deliver to my kids that include general school supplies as well as materials to ensure a hands-on learning approach even while remote! Once online learning begins, students will use these materials to help them better understand the basics of multiplication. They'll use tiles and play-doh to create arrays and manipulate them to get a concrete understanding of multiplication. They'll use the pencils, notebooks, binders, and whiteboards, and book bags to take notes and learn to keep themselves organized. The goal is to teach life-skills like organization and coping alongside content! As we transition back into the classroom, the materials will ideally travel with them so it will be nice to have everything in one neat, organized place!
