Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

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

My students are a group of eager 7 and 8 year olds who love learning! While they all receive free lunch and are classified as low income, this is not a barrier to their vision and desire to be all that they can be!!!

Despite the various reading levels, all my students enjoy reading!

All students are ambitious to become great readers. They each have individual weekly literacy goals to complete online; however, with limited technology it is impossible to do.

My Project

With 5 Chromebooks, the students will be able to use them to complete diagnostic literacy skills on Lexia. Students are challenged to complete a prescribed amount of units each week, and as they do they are awarded certificates.

My below basic readers will have access to intensive intervention online.

All students will have the opportunity to meet weekly literacy goals and reach benchmark targets. Now students will have the opportunity to consistently practice the necessary skills that in turn will help them meet our district reading target: 100% of students reading on grade level by the end of grade 2.
