My Project

I am requesting a gift card to Teachers Pay Teachers to find more digital resources to use with my lessons. On TpT, I am able to type in any topic and the site pulls up a plethora of resources and activities on that topic. With the site, there are activities that help meet all learning modalities.

Recently, I will be teaching an additional class who have varied learning needs.

Having access to purchase different activities will mitigate some of the learning losses from the pandemic. Students love project based learning, with a gift card I'll be able to find teacher created and tested materials.

I am also requesting printer ink to be able to print the resources as well.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
