Successful Learning In Any Environment

Help me give my students various materials to be successful in a virtual or hybrid learning environment.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Volk's classroom raised $415

This project is fully funded

My Students

My students are mostly 6 and 7 years old. They are young, enthusiastic learners! First grade is such an important year and this school year is unique in many ways. They have many additional hardships including trying to conquer the world of virtual learning. They are missing out on many of the social relationships that they love about school.

My students love learning new things and work hard each day to improve in many ways.

I am working hard to help them grow as much as they possibly can! They are passionate about learning. They truly deserve to have additional resources to enhance their learning experience and reach their potential.

My Project

Thank you for looking at my project! The materials I am requesting are to help my students be successful whether they are engaged in virtual learning at home, or in a hybrid environment.

The earbuds with microphones will help my students focus on their work and be able to talk to me through Google meet without interruption.

These can be used at home or inside the classroom when working on programs on the computer. I am also requesting individual whiteboards and dry erase markers for my students to use as an additional workspace instead of always having to write with pencil and paper.

The mesh bags will be used to separate materials for each individual student. We won't be able to share materials as usual with social distancing guidelines. Thank you again for your support!
