My Students

Due to the current pandemic, my students have been learning virtually all year and are noticing some needs that would help them out and be more successful. At the beginning of the year, we had hoped we would be back in the classroom sooner than later, however, that has not happened and will not be happening any time soon.

These items will help students while they continue to learn virtually via Zoom and provide some fun and engaging challenges to do.

I would like to provide my students with items to not only help them be successful while at home learning but also enjoy some topics that we otherwise would not be able to do.

My Project

Students will be able to do various science activities at home to help them learn while having some fun while learning virtually at home. Some students do not have working headphones that will help them block out background noises and be able to focus so they will receive a pair of headphones to help them be able to focus better. I have also included a book to help me better serve my students while teaching virtually. At this point in the year, the students are struggling with not being able to be in person so I would like to help provide them with items that will give them a boost and enjoy learning.
