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 school is a Title I school that sits in the heart of Washington, DC. I have a group of 32 students who are fun loving, eager-to-learn new things, excited about school and love to READ. My classroom would be considered a melting pot of cultural heritage and social needs. Many of my students have been in the US less than four years. They inspire me every day. I teach English Language Arts, Eureka Math, Science and Social Studies, and my students are amazing!
What makes my students amazing is their ability to persevere.
They know their goals, and strive to meet them. Many are faced with challenges beyond their control, with guidance and education; they can S.O.A.R. I work at a school that values the education of our scholars.
What makes them amazing; they strive for excellence, even if it is not given to them. What makes them destined for greatness is their eagerness and unwavering spirit.
To meet their needs we incorporate a variety of learning strategies, group work, and alternative seating and learning options to ensure that each student's needs are met, right where they are.
My Project
We are requesting five Android tablets. Having access to technology will improve my students' learning in many ways. For example, my students will be able to connect to the world by reading information that stimulates their critical thinking skills and improves their reading abilities. Students will also have the opportunity to respond to literacy questions which will also improve students' writing and typing skills.
Furthermore, having access to technology my students will be able to connect with other students globally to discuss various literature.
If we had these efficient technology my students will have access to technology at least three times a week.
Our school currently has 200 computers for 660 students. My students have end of the year blended learning goals which include: Lexia Core 5, ST Math, and I-Ready Math. We simply do not have enough to fulfill my duty of becoming an effective teacher.
