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 seven to eleven years old with a variety of intellectual, physical and sensory, as well as emotional impairments in our elementary school. My students are focusing on gaining life skills that will be applicable to their academics and parts of their life after school ends. The goal of my self-contained classroom is to provide students with special needs, all the tools that are needed to be successful in their own right.

My students attend a Title I school that often struggles to get the necessary materials for those who have learning disabilities.

Most of my students are looking forward to gaining a strong academic foundation and learning how to be an active and productive member of society. With the strong community of all who play a role in my students' success,​ we will be able to make these goals a reality.

My Project

This iPad and stylus will make a huge difference in the lives of my scholars. Many of my scholars already have academic deficits as a result of their disabilities and with the Covid-19 pandemic it has increased drastically. With the use of this technology, students will be able to use these devices to assist with their differentiated instruction. Many students have health disparities that warrant the use of an iPad with specialized programming. I want to make strides as it relates to closing the achievement gap and it starts with making sure those with significant needs get the proper educational tools to be successful. While the teaching and learning process looks different at this time, there is no reason we cannot give students what they need even in a remote setting.
