My Project

Since the spring of 2020, our students have faced unimaginable obstacles. As a public school teacher I have done everything possible to make sure my students feel safe, loved and cared for while at school. We are working incredibly hard to catch some of our students up from the learning gap that grew during the COVID-19 pandemic. Teaching reading in a multisensory way is more important that ever. These resources will help my students continue to learn and grow and give us the resources we need for our classroom. I am excited to continue my learning on the science of reading.
