In order for students to be able to thrive in the classroom, they must have their basic needs met: safety. Our classrooms are small and crowded, but we still have the expectation of distancing a full class of students and putting them into groups. Space-saving furniture, cleaning supplies, and extra masks will allow me to provide students with a safer and more efficient classroom environment. They won't have to worry about health, safety, or distance as much and will be able to focus their attention on growing as a learner. These materials will help students learn more effectively given our transformed state of learning.
