My Students

My third grade class is full of energy and enthusiasm. My students come to school every morning with a variety of emotional and academics challenges. I am constantly inspired by their perseverance and commitment to learning. My students struggle to stay focused and on task in the classroom because they have SO much energy!

My students are creative, caring, compassionate, and love to learn.

My Project

These materials will allow me to provide my students with hands on manipulatives and activities during distance learning. Many of my students struggled with online activities during distance learning. With these materials I will be able to provide activities for my students that meet their needs. The headphones will help my students focus when there are things going on around them at home. The art materials will help my students continue to use their creativity even when they are at home. Having materials to help them express their ideas and come up with creative ways to learn is something I would normally provide in the classroom.
