Like many of you, my district has decided to begin remotely for the first nine weeks of school. Prepping kindergarten remote learning resources felt so overwhelming at first. I knew I wanted to include printables for ELA and Math that could be used throughout the entire school year (as we have no clue of knowing when/if we are going back the the classroom). I decided to create a binder with purposeful pages place in sheet protectors so that my students could use them as dry-erase write and wipe activities to practice again and again. The binder turned out better than I had imagined! In fact, I plan on continuing to use it even after remote learning is over!
The Kindergarten Remote Learning Resources Binder Bundle Includes the Following:
•Editable Cover Options (You may type students’ names in center or customize as you wish!)
•Editable Welcome to Kindergarten Letter explaining the binder (Use the sample letter or create your own!)

Teacher Tips for Prepping Your Kindergarten Remote Learning Resources Binders
Simply print the pages double-sided on card stock, insert the pages into sheet protectors, and place the flash cards in the inside pocket. Students may use the pages with a dry-erase marker again and again throughout the school year for independent practice.
I also plan on using these pages for my remote learning live lessons. I will tell my students which page to turn to, and we will complete some activities together. You may choose to number the pages in the bottom corner if you like with a Sharpie before you make your copies. That way, you can tell students to turn to the page number.
If your budget does not provide the funds needed to buy the materials, ask your parents to purchase a one-inch binder and 20 sheet protectors. You can always just send home the pages with instructions for the parents to fill the sheet protectors on their own.
Head to my TPT Store to check out the full video preview of the binder.
I am so excited to use this resource for my own remote learning. I hope that it helps you with yours!
