My Students

I have the honor and privilege of teaching and being with the most positive, resilient, kind, brilliant, and fabulous first graders that you have ever seen! They look at the world with wonder and excitement, every single day. It is that world that has also brought fear, doubt, confusion, and stress to so many of their loved ones, families, and even each of them.

As their teacher, I want their education, whether at home or our classroom, to be a something that is constant - a light in a storm.

I want every child to have access to what we learn each day, not depending on an internet connection or device. With learning “Tool Kits”, each child will have access to opportunity, to growth, to learn, to hope - even in the chaotic world around them.

My Project

In the past three years, we have switched from at-school to remote learning each of those years, either as a district, school, class, or quarantined individuals, sometimes for days, sometimes for weeks, or even months at a time. This can be unsettling to everyone, including teachers, parents, families, and especially the students.

In these unsettled times, their learning doesn’t have to stop, or even pause.

Wherever the students are, they know that with these tools, our class and learning will keep going. These compact but complete “Tool Kits” are backpack-friendly and can stay with the student to use in our classroom or at home, whenever the need arises. With young learners, they do not need and should not have hours of screen time. Paper and pencil practice is critical for comprehension as well as strengthening fine motor skills.

Lined dry erase boards are an easy way to for students to share their ideas, strategies, writing, spelling, etc., in a quick and easy way that they love!

Math dry erase boards give guidance and structure with templates, but the student can still customize them to solve their math problems. They are a super way to show and strengthen strategies and critical thinking.

Whisper phones help improve reading fluency and give added motivation to read! It is so important for a young and growing reader to read aloud and hear themselves read the words in front of them.
