My Students

Distant Learning has thrown a gargantuan monkey wrench in the midst of the best of plans and intentions! My students are struggling with remaining engaged; and persevering. Kids have to be "in school," but showing up ready on screen, eager to participate, and maintaining the energy to self-regulate has been tough. Children are resilient, but COVID-19 is placing a strain on their resiliency.

My Project

Distant Learning has thrown a gargantuan monkey wrench in traditional learning! Students need outlets to dodge the doldrums! Promoting positivity, creatively engaging students, stoking their curiosity and talents, and encouraging a healthy extra-curricula activity is paramount . Kids love prizes, and research often touts the benefit of art as an enhancing accompaniment to academics. Help my kids "draw the conclusion" that school, albeit remote, is still fun! I want to incentivize my students with art supplies, and fun pencil pouches. Let's reward their grit- with tools for art, and an option for self-expression!
