My Students

These are unprecedented times. Never did I imagine that when my students and I said goodbye in March, it would mean that it was our last day in the classroom.

My students are imaginative and fun-loving kids.

They come from low-income households and have not had much experience with the world outside their small community.

My Project

My wonderful students have been working so incredibly hard using the assignments that I have given them with Google Classroom, YouTube, and Audible Stories. We meet 3 days a week, and seeing those beautiful smiles melts my heart!

They have done an amazing job working with remote learning!

I want them to continue learning, during the summer but, more having more fun while learning with these great math games and word games while spending time with their family.

These games will help them to continue to learn while having fun with their family.
