These last few years have proven that flexibility is key to learning. In the past, I have used a traditional book to teach and it gets stale and boring for me and the students. As many teachers, I reevaluated and found that students really enjoyed getting away from the book. So I started making all of my materials and supplementing with outside resources. Unfortunately, this was not sustainable. I found myself working from the time I got home until the time I went to bed to maintain all of my responsibilities. Finally, I found a curriculum that better fits me and my students. This curriculum is hosted by two wonderful teachers through Google Slides. It encourages students to engage in German with real-life situations, has relatable social media examples, and gives students and teachers flexibility. As a teacher, I can use this resource to print out material, supplement with my own material, break up lessons, make things accessible online and more. These teacher pay teachers gift cards would allow me to purchase this curriculum and give my students and myself the adaptable learning environment we need as we navigate the ever changing landscape of education.
