My Students

I currently teach a fully remote, first grade class. These students are part of a general education class. All of my students have not stepped foot inside of a classroom since March 2020. Every morning, they come to our Google Meet with smiles and such enthusiasm for learning. They have adapted so well to learning over a computer and have done such a wonderful job in all areas that make me super proud about them. My lovies are awesome!

My Project

My students spend a large amount of time on the computer since they learn remotely. I would love for them to have some screen-free time with books that will make them smile and feel proud of all of the work they have been doing.

I would love to see the joy they will get from receiving books that they can keep and treasure forever.

This will help them on their academic journey. We share books as a class and I would love for them to have them on their own.
