Here is an awesome resource created by our teacher candidates as a part of their Problem Solution Project! Please share!!

Between virtual learning, limited social interaction, and financial hardship, the 2020-21 school year has been rough for kids. That’s why the UACM Master’s in Teaching Elementary Education cohort made GA COVID Catch-Up, an online resource database for families/caregivers in Georgia to help their K-5 kids “catch up” over the summer before the new school year begins.
