My Project

It is needless to say that the COVID-19 Pandemic has affected schools and students nationwide in tremendous ways. Moreover, it has affected how students access the academic and social-emotional learning curriculum in our classrooms. The COVID-19 Pandemic has affected my students in accessing academic as well as social-emotional learning curriculum in school by shifting how they access these tools in the classroom. With the resources I have purchased such as the Communication Cards as well as the Auditory Buttons, I am aiming to enhance each of my students' learning by addressing their individual communication needs as the COVID-19 Pandemic had halted access to these types of materials for them as well as their families.
