Materials in the Time of COVID-19

Help me give my students the materials they need to continue learning from home. We need books for daily read alouds, math manipulatives for teacher demonstration, and chart paper.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

One Friday, my 4th grade students and I left our classroom... and didn't come back. I wish I had known I needed to take all my teaching supplies with me!

I'm currently teaching from home with my laptop but need additional supplies to make some 'teaching magic'!

Our classroom is a vibrant place where we emphasize college readiness and integrate technology into our learning. My students are mainly lower socio-economic status and I also have a cluster of students in special education.

My Project

Please help my students learn from home as we accomplish several objectives to get ready for 5th grade... and eventually college. First, I would like picture books to do daily 'read alouds' to increase reading comprehension and pique student interest in quality literature. I've chosen several acclaimed read alouds that concentrate on social-emotional learning and empathy in an effort to create meaningful discussions in a time of crisis. Second, I need basic supplies like chart paper. Last, I need demonstration manipultitves for the last math units we missed before our school closed.

Please considering us during these trying times.
