My Project

Covid 19 has impacted learning in the classroom because of the need for social distancing. Younger students learn better with closer proximity to the teacher and instruction board. Students have been sitting at desks and could focus and see better sitting on the floor near teacher. The classroom rug and white board will be used to accomplish this! Students need to get back into having social conversations with their peers, also known as, "turn and talk." The pandemic has limited these important experiences that are vital for all individuals, especially our young, future leaders!
