Hello, I am a second grade teacher. We are a Title I school district, meaning there is a high economic need in our community. Our students come from variety of different ethnic background and our school community is very diverse. Our school and community had been unexpectedly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. One minute we were at school teaching our students , following a schedule, following routines, and in the blink of an eye our lives have changed including how our students are learning. The COVID-19 pandemic has increased my drive to make certain my students will have what they need to learn and be nurtured while they are learning from home and in the classroom. For many of our students, school is the one place where most, if not all, their needs were taken care of. Now that our school is closed to our students, I feel the need to help them in anyway I can. I want them to know that I still care about them and their needs are my priority. Teaching from home has been difficult for my students, and parents. I want to do everything I can to help ease some of the stress. Unfortunately, our students are missing out on getting to play games and other ways we learn to socialize. I would use the printer to help create the games needed for each student to have their own. I decided I want to personalize their care packages and the printer will allow me to personalize their gift bags and make my students games so they can have fun while practicing skills this school year.
