As of Wednesday, August 19th, my school district made the decision to continue remote, online learning until as least the end of the semester. After completing a full week of interactive online teaching, it is apparent that students do not have all of the supplies needed to make online learning meaningful. The kit I am requesting for my students has all of the necessary supplies needed, including a dry erase board, dry erase markers, and erasers.
These items will improve their learning significantly because they are able to interact with the teacher and each other during math talks and ELA lessons. The kit also includes other items such as construction paper, markers, scissors, and a glue stick, so that their learning is not limited to just core subjects.
With the extra supplies, my students may have the opportunity to use their imaginations and creativity in ways they might not be able to without those supplies.
