My Students

As a first year kindergarten teacher, I have entered the teaching profession in an abnormal form, making it more challenging due to having such limited income to get the resources needed to support my students through virtual learning. Can you imagine how our little ones feel? Entering school for the very first time in an abnormal way? Although, we are entering the school year in an abnormal form, I want to provide my student's a virtual learning experience that is full of magical resources that still gives the ability to learn at home that will be forever remembered. What counts is being able to provide a successful learning regardless if it is continuation of distance learning or entering in a face-to-face.

My students comes from a Title I public school, and about 60% percent of my students receive free or reduced cost lunch.

Given no option, my kindergartners have entered the school year seeing their classmates and their teacher through an iPad screen. With just a screen in front of them, I also want to be able to provide visual hands on materials that can be used to enhance their learning abilities at home.

My Project

The Teacher Pay Teachers website has amazing learning materials, and resources that can be shared via digital or available to print. With Teachers Pay Teachers, there are many great learning materials that I would like to use to support my student's learning. Learning materials that I will be purchasing are to help my students develop their literacy, social/emotional development, math, science as well as adding additional resources that can be use a references.

I have students at all different levels, and I will be able to find learning materials that will help support all different learning levels.
