My Students

My students are trying their best to learn based on the lessons I post online. Parents have been really supportive and try to get their children online. Our school has sent home electronic devices to aid in this effort.

Students and families are currently struggling with providing hands-on books that the kids can read.

This is so important for them, especially since all my students are tactile learners.

My Project

These books will make a big splash in the hands of my students. They are eager to keep on practicing the reading skills they worked so hard to acquire. I chose books that we have read together so they can enjoy them on their own. The snacks will go great with the books, providing an enjoyable bonding experience with their families.

I miss my students every day, and this will be one small way that I can let them know I am here for them.

The books and snacks are a great reward for working so hard even with school being closed.
