My Students

Students at my school are creative, curious, and active. Enhancing their learning with books and hands-on learning experiences is so important to my students and these experiences are truly valued. I am a 5th grade teacher at an elementary school in Delaware. Since our return to school, the students cannot check out books from our school or local library and all field trips have been cancelled. This is something that the students looked forward to each year. I want to continue my students' love for learning by offering them books to read at school and take home in addition to hand-on learning experiences.

My Project

I would like to take the entire fifth grade, remote and in-person learners on a virtual field trip to the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia since all field trips have been cancelled and museums are closed at this time. We are studying the Constitution and the Bill of Rights and this virtual experience would enhance and enrich their learning. With this experience, students can still enjoy the wonderful exhibits at the National Constitution Center and the "The Story of We the People" as we would have done normally.
