Capturing My Students in the Digital World With Remote Tools

Help me give my students more remote tools through Teachers Pay Teachers. This is the easiest way to reach each student while we have to learn through a computer.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Gagen's classroom raised $275

My Students

Every single one of my students are currently participating in remote learning. Although this is not the norm, they are doing their best. Each morning these 4th and 5th graders log on at 8am ready to go for the day. They receive three hours of live instruction each day.

Some have help at home while others are depending on me to help them through the reading and writing assignments.

Whatever the case they are trying their very best.

My Project

Teachers Pay Teachers allows me to buy and download successful learning tools that will help my students to be successful while we learn remotely. This situation we find ourselves in is not ideal but we need to make it work. Teachers Pay Teachers resources will allow me to work with my students individually, on their specific level.

TPT has over 3 million resources that can be downloaded instantly and then sent to my students within seconds.

This is the easiest way to ensue I reach each student in my 4th and 5th grade classes.
