My Project

Students currently in 4th and 5th grade were in Kindergarten and 1st grade at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic and missed essential skills that were building blocks of their literacy and math skills. We will be working in 4th and 5th grade to continue closing these gaps and get caught up to grade-level expectations to be ready to thrive in middle school! Students will benefit greatly from being able to move their bodies on wobble stools and have fun practicing math skills with games. We also need basic tools to ensure all students are engaged and working during class time!
