My Students
My students are an at risk group of 1st graders whom unfortunately missed part of their very important classroom experience the prior year due to Covid 19. Although the students have had many obstacles of learning, they continue to prove everyday to be resilient and determined! The students learn very fast and is soaking up knowledge daily like a sponge!
Someone once said, "The quality of physical learning environment goes hand and hand with academic performance".
Our class is self contained and the students are with me the majority of the day. The students are learning to read and write. They are very curious and eager to learn. The majority of the class like to draw and play outside.
My Project
Currently we have a limited amount of outlets in the room. Our classroom is designed for students to be on his or her device the majority of the day. We do not currently have a docking station. The the best available outlet is under my desk. The 15 power cords to the student devices are in the way and tend to get tangled. All of the devices sit on my desk when charging which takes away from much needed room for me to do other things. The charging cart will help me ensure no one laptops are touching while charging; I plan to assign slots. The charging cart will be located in a more central organized location. I will no longer have to worry about tangled cords, stacks of devices on my desk or students devices not being charged because we are taking turns using outlets.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
