My Students

A new year brings a new classroom of students we are excited to meet and teach. The fact that they have been able to switch their thinking from interactive classroom learning to digital learning last year, tells us they are ready to be challenged in a meaningful and creative way.

My Project

Let's face it - distance learning is hard. Eyes wander, attention moves, and school can be...gasp...boring! Mrs. Monath and I have a goal to make this year's learning quest exciting, engaging, creative, and fun!

To help us do that, we have to get creative.

You'll notice our list has costumes and games as well as digital resources. Why learn about the Maryland colony from a teacher, when you can learn from a colonist?! Learn grammar from the Grammar Police!

Help us make learning come alive while we are all apart!
