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

Our School is a Title I school with 100% free and reduced lunch. Student success is the goal for every student and faculty member at our elementary school. We have an outstanding school where we believe that each child can and will grow to his/her full potential and become an independent learner through our dedication to high-quality, research-based best educational practices.

The environment of our grade is one that prepares each student to be successful in and outside of our classrooms.

We use what we learn inside our classrooms to be prepared citizens for the real world. Our best learning is accomplished when real-world experiences are at our fingertips.

My fifth-grade students are a diverse group. They all have their own learning styles, embrace their differences, and are dedicated to their learning.

The students learn best when they have individualized, real-world experiences that connect to their classroom learning. Many students have jobs around our school to show their pride for our school community.

My Project

Technology today is amazingly helpful to students. Math and Reading programs that help the students practice their basic skills and transfer the learning from class. But with 25 students in class, it can get quite noisy with all of the encouragement and directions from the online programs.

The environment of our grade is one that prepares each student to be successful in and outside of our classroom.

The classroom is a noisy place on any day with the exchanging of ideas between teacher and student.

Headphones help keep the noise level at a minimum while keeping learning at a maximum. Having headphones in the classroom means enormous possibilities to enhance learning and focus by both the teacher and the students.
