My Students

My students and I spent this spring in distance learning and we are starting this year in distance learning as well. In many ways distance learning has been a struggle for my students; they are dealing with confined learning spaces, uncertain living environments and inequitable access to resources. My students and I are separated by sickness, uncertainty and space; at the same time, we are united by our love, our history together and our dedication to learning.

We are living through history.

My students are incredible people. They come with tenacity, creativity, and a wide variety of experiences and gifts. We work hard every day as scholars, artists, critical thinkers, and friends.

My Project

My students and I have been in distance learning since last March. This has been difficult for all of us. We miss each other and our routines and the enrichment I am able to provide in our school setting. As a part of our Distance Learning routine, I am hosting a daily Morning Meeting with my students, which includes our daily read aloud, games, and art activities.

I'm excited to engage my students with new art projects while they are learning at home.

In order to do that we all need to have the same supplies. Some of the materials we need are a craft kit for each student, tempera paint sticks, paper, construction paper crayons, and a blank puzzle for each student to individualize. I think that this is a great chance for my students and me to do something together even though we are apart. Thank you for inspiring us and giving my amazing artists and I a chance to create together.
