Distance Learning Beginner's Kit!

My Students

My classroom was affected greatly by this pandemic. Living in an area where the kids are already not receiving equitable resources, school being cancelled has broadened their education gap even further. My students just recently received computers with no training on how to use them.

With the unknown of what this school year has in hold with this pandemic, I need to make sure my students have a chance to effectively learn from home!

With that being said, I need to have resources to effectively TEACH them! I currently have a laptop, my personal printer, and personally funded school supplies.

My Project

These resources will help me be able to create a classroom environment to teach from home during distance learning. These resources will help me with the use of the supplies I already have acquired with my own money.

Instead of using materials around the house to prop up my laptop, the laptop stand (and other laptop materials) will work wonders in helping me move fluidly through my virtual lessons.

I can also use this stand for my iPad which can be used as a projector. The printer ink will allow me to continue printing necessary things out for my students. This project will also help supply manipulatives for fractions and different multiplication practices.
