In early March, as many teachers did, I said goodbye to my students for what I thought would be two weeks. As Covid-19 continues to surge, our district has made the difficult decision to move to online learning in the Fall. Many of my students struggle with distance learning for reasons such as no access to a device or wifi, homelessness, and guardians who are at work and unable to assist with learning. Within the school building, I provide my scholars with basic necessities for learning such as pencils, paper, markers, manipulatives, calculators, and so on. Each one of my scholars learns in a different and unique way. By providing my students with individual back to school bags, it is my hope that students are able to follow along with online instruction while having access to the same tools that helped them grasp the concepts in school. The items I am requesting will be used during our district's use of remote learning as well as upon their return to the classroom. Each student having access to their own bag will assist in ensuring students do not have to share resources.
