Distance Learning Activities

Last year most of us were forced to teach via distance learning for the 2020-2021 school year. I am not a big fan of distance learning for little children.  They are still babies and need nurturing, individual help and modeling.  I miss hearing there funny thoughts and teaching them how to get along with each other. 

However, I was happy to be safe than sorry. 

I always look for the positives in everything, so I thought about this as an opportunity to grow.  I have created some lessons to use in this digital time.

Make a copy if you would like to use this.

I have also posted uppercase handwriting videos on my YouTube channel. Click on the image below.

The worksheets are here.

When the children were able to come back to school, I tried to have fun activities for them.

Mother's Day Gifts 
Students painted wooden boxes and decorated them with stickers.

We made favorite character puppets.

I gave them the cube challenge!

We watched caterpillars change to butterflies and made "A Very Hungry Caterpillar" project.

We also did a succulent propagation experiment but that is a post for another day...
