My Project

COVID sent our world into a spin of unexpected changes and struggles. Unfortunately for students and teachers we are still spinning as we try to find ways to reconnect as a community and engage in work. Students are still struggling with engagement, belonging, socializing and stamina. The academic habits and skills are gradually rebooting; however, students are behind with their ability to interact with one another. As a teacher of all freshman, it is essential that I help students connect with their environment and transition to high school successfully. The creative community culture request will help me give students a variety of supplies to come together, create a true community of learners, and engage in project based learning without the worry of gathering supplies.
