It is imperative that I have students engage in small group discussions and receive instruction SAFELY. Students love sharing their ideas with their peers and learning from each other. Mobile desks and stools will allow students to work together and still maintain their physical distance. They will be able to work in any part of the classroom or even go outside instead of being in one fixed location. This will be a great opportunity for students to receive peer feedback in their writing pieces or to receive small group intervention instruction. Flexible seating and headphones with a microphone will allow students to record their oral fluency passages independently. Flexible seating will help me to differentiate instruction and meet the needs of my unique students whereby rolling desks will allow for flexibility in the learning environment. I can challenge students who have mastered a skill or offer reteaching for students who need more time. The larger mobile desk will allow me or other service providers (Counselor, Special Education teacher, Interventionist, or Occupational Therapist) to easily work with one student or a small group in the class or just outside in the fresh air allowing for appropriate distancing. Providing visual and auditory aids are important to address various learning styles. Recently our grade level received an iPad, TV, and Apple TV. A tablet stage will be used to project instructional materials to students from the iPad and an Apple pencil will allow me to digitally annotate them for my students to view. The speakers will provide a means to share audio from videos embedded in our literacy program and other sites. Thank you in advance for providing my students with the tools and equipment to be successful in this digital era and for providing choices for flexible learning environments.
