My Students

My students are amazing! They are smart, curious, kind, and respectful kids who work HARD and do their best, ALWAYS! They love coming to our virtual classroom every day, and I know no matter what this upcoming school year is looking like, they are rising to the occasion and excelling. But they need some help to keep up the great work!

My Project

My students love to learn about the world around them! Although they all love reading fiction stories, they are also fascinated by nonfiction, and being virtual learners with not many (if any) books at home, we rely heavily on digital resources in our virtual classroom. A digital subscription to TIME for Kids will allow my learners to access high-quality and engaging articles about current events and grade 2 learning standards.

This digital subscription will allow my learners at all reading levels to access the content, because the articles are available at 3 different reading levels, offer audio read alouds, and even have articles in Spanish.
