My Students

Even during this Covid19 pandemic my students love school! They are so anxious to see their classmates when school starts in September. They are already excited to start working on their literacy skills. First graders love to work with their hands when they are learning new skills or practicing skills already learned.

My Project

I want to give my students Hand2mind Versatiles literacy kits. These kits will give them the opportunity to self-check which will give them confidence and increase their self-esteem. Since we have a variety of reading levels in our classroom it is my goal to provide many different options. The addition of the Versatiles will spark new excitement in my classroom while allowing for social distancing since each student will have their own kit to use daily.

We are striving to show growth in all students as they progress throughout the school year.

This new resource will help greatly in giving my students ownership in their own learning. They will choose their own path in the lessons they practice in their own designated office area.
