My Project

I teach some pretty awesome kiddos that have faced some very untraditional times in education and at home during the COVID-19 times. I want to help them get their days at school started in a positive way: creating together, reading together, playing a game together. Not only do they play on a screen, but they have also spent a lot of learning time alone, on a screen. I want to provide more opportunities for my students to learn and play together, OFF the screen. I want them to experience playing board games, taking turns, building STEM skills, math and language skills through cooperative play. I would also like to add second copies of books to my library so students can read together and share their favorite books as they arrive at school.

All kiddos come to school excited to learn and see what kind of experiences await them each day.

It's my honor to experience learning with them!

My Project

I am looking to fill my classroom with engaging and educational STEM, math,and reading resources that are not on a screen. While learning to take turns, encouraging one another and practicing communication skills, these resources will allow the students to start their day without the stress of a worksheet or on a screen .The storage boxes and baskets will allow quick access to resources and promote easy clean up.

Due to this pandemic, many of my students are below grade level in reading and math, as well as struggling with social skills. By utilizing these activities, students will gain the skills and confidence it takes to become successful students, both in and out of the classroom!
