This project is fully funded

My Project

Having access to the curriculum through Teachers Pay Teachers will help me to keep my lessons exciting and engaging, all the while using a format that students enjoy.

During math and language arts instruction I love being able to incorporate crafts, games and centers and with TPT I can download and use these creative activities everyday.

Teachers Pay Teachers has amazing, age-appropriate math, literacy, social studies, art and science lessons and games to engage all students in distant learning.

Students will be provided with curriculum in class and digitally in Google Classroom and be able to engage in conversations about all the fun things we are learning whole class. Teachers Pay Teachers will give me access to a variety of activities such as drop and drag slides, forms, games, and videos on all subject matter.
