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

I teach 18 first graders at a Title 1 School. This year my students are learning to read, write, count, add, subtract and much more. This group loves learning using technology. I hope to be able be able to give them more opportunities to learn using technology.

In this classroom we are friends, teammates, creators, artist, explorers, authors, world dreamers and changers, scholars, heroes and most importantly, family.

Our school family celebrates inclusions. I serve as the ESE Teacher and General Education teacher. The work we do in this classroom is building relationships, staying with the group, following directions, and accessing general education content in different ways. We celebrate little wins together each day.

My Project

The students in my classroom do not have much access to technology at home. Technology at school includes 45 minutes of computer lab time 3 times a week. I would LOVE to give my students the opportunity to learn using technology in the classroom. We do not have access to iPads or Kindles at my school. Osmo is a GREAT learning tool for students ages 6-10. Osmo creates a super engaging way of reaching children. Students are more engaged with hands on learning tools than worksheets. I hope to give my students the opportunity use this learning tool to help them navigate through the skills we will be learning in first grade.
