My Students

My students and their families are facing challenges and obstacles as we have transitioned to distance learning due to coronavirus. We left school on Friday with a "Have a great weekend and see you Monday," which then turned into stop by the school on Tuesday morning to pick up your distance learning packet from your car. There have been many growing pains along the way but there have been so many smiles and laughs too.

While many of my students have faced obstacles and challenges over these last couple of weeks, they are continuing to stay positive and trying their very best from home!

My Project

I teach kindergarten. We learn by hands on activities, exploring, singing and with a lot of teacher support. Our classroom is always a buzz with chatter because we are busy learning. However, due to the coronavirus, our school building has been closed but our learning has not stopped.

My desire to provide my students with fun and engaging lessons has not stopped since being at home.

We are continuing to meet on ZOOM, work on interactive lessons on SeeSaw and continuing our learning in a paper packet. Truthfully, I hope even more to provide more engaging and interactive lessons because I understand the struggle of learning from home. (I also am helping my own personal children and I am teaching my 21 kindergarten students.) This project is requesting materials that I will be able to use to teach from a distance. The teacherpayteachers (TpT) gift card will be used to buy digital activities that I can then insert into SeeSaw. The digital activities will allow students to complete a variety of activities and allow me to provide instant feedback to help correct any misunderstanding. The TpT gift card will also be used to purchase learning activities that I can print at home. This is where I will use the cardstock paper and the laminating pouches to ensure that the activities last a long time. Some students still need activities and resources to hold in their hands and for those students, I will mail or deliver the learning activities. Lastly, every kindergarten classroom needs colorful anchor charts to help us learn. I am still using and creating anchor charts at home but need markers so they can be colorful and easy to see on a screen.

With your help, I can continue to teach and provide engaging lessons from home!
