My Project

My students are unique and special because this is almost like their first year in school. Many of my students have not had kindergarten. Since COVID-19, my students are still learning how to be in a real classroom setting and learning how to learn in the classroom. By supporting my students, these tools will help them to enjoy being in school and to enjoy learning while having fun at the same time. I want my students to enjoy learning while using fun game like activities. I'm a very hands-on person and some of these other learning tools will benefit my students in advancing their learning in different ways besides using a textbook.
