This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Students
I am blessed to have a Promethean Board (IWB) in my classroom. The students and I love it. However, using it means my back is turned toward the students - NOT a good thing!!
I teach Kindergarten in rural South Carolina.
My students are bright and inquisitive. We are a Title I school with 93% of Kindergarten students receiving free/reduced lunch. Our school was featured on South Carolina ETV's "Corridor of Shame." All of our funds have been frozen for two years.
My Project
This ActivSlate will allow my students to work at the ActivBoard from anywhere in the room. This will allow students to be much more involved in everything from Calendar Time to reading stories and completing Math problems. The ActivSlate will also allow me to roam around the room and give them support without needing to be in the front of the classroom.
I am always looking for fun and interesting experiences to capture my students' love for learning.
Subjects, lessons, students, and participation can come alive in the classroom. An ActivSlate will help motivate my students to be "ACTIV" participants in their learning.
