Virtual Teaching Tools

Help me give my students books and technology tools to enhance the virtual learning experience!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Hummel's classroom raised $360

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

My students are eager and curious first graders who love every opportunity to learn. They greet each day with excitement and show such excitement for new experiences.

Every day, students listen to books intently, learn through games, learn social skills, and revel at new learning.

First grade students are sponges for learning; this is a formative year in learning foundational reading and math skills. Watching them learn is one of my greatest joys!

My Project

The beginning of the school year is a very exciting time for young students; this year is just as exciting as we begin in a virtual setting! I am requesting materials that will enhance my virtual teaching experience for the class. For example, a headset to maintain audio quality if I need to step away from the computer and an external keyboard to allow easy typing while teaching.

We will use petri dishes and the "Germs vs Soap" books to educate students about health and hygiene.

"Our Class is a Family" books will help build community and foster conversations about race and inclusion. Cardstock paper will be used to send post cards to students. Last, as I will be spending much more time sitting while teaching, I have requested an office chair for comfort!
