The Corona Connection

Help me give my students the opportunity to remain connected and to continue learning while at home during the Covid-19 crisis.

My Students

Nothing makes my day more than being greeted by my students as they run into the classroom smiling, wide-eyed and ready to go! Their energy is electric, their curiosity-contagious.

For many of my students, this is their very first school experience.

How fortunate am I that I have the opportunity to enrich their lives every day and lay the foundation for their future learning and success!

Thank you for considering funding this project and providing my students with learning fun!

My Project

The goal of this project is to remain connected with my students while we are distanced as a result of Covid-19. There was no forewarning as the directive to remain home spread throughout the town. No goodbyes or time to prepare at home packets appropriate for my little ones.

My students started school in January, so our time together has been short.

These individual Ready for Preschool Backpacks will provide everyone with the same developmentally appropriate activities and manipulatives to practice and reinforce skills learned to date. I will also be able to create fun at home lessons for everyone!
