Eleven 2020 Back to School Freebies for Teachers
Many schools are planning a hybrid schedule for the upcoming 2020-2021 school year. That means teachers need to prepare a virtual, and a live classroom simultaneously. As a mom, I also have to begin thinking about the home instruction environment that I will offer my own children. Before I begin to spend money out of my pocket, I always scour the internet for resources to help stock up my classroom. Check out these teacher freebies and offers below to help get all of your classrooms ready for the new school year, because this year, we need to be ready for anything!
