Help me give my students headphones to use during class time videos and lectures! As the year has progressed, I have found that my classroom needs more organizational resources in order to best serve my kids.
I teach in a Title I school in the Charlotte-Mecklenburg school district in Charlotte, North Carolina. Every day our students walk through the door, every single adult tells them they are the best; getting them to believe that is no easy feat. Over 42% of our student population are considered economically disadvantaged.
But we don’t let those statistics define our kids.
I know our kids are brilliant, curious, and kind. I know they have big goals and work hard to achieve them. Its our job to provide them with practical life skills to help them become whatever they want to be!
My Project
The materials I have listed will better organize the classroom allowing students to have more autonomy over getting necessary materials when needed -- should they miss a day and need the work, forget their school supplies, or pick up a copy of the classwork for a friend. In addition, almost all of my students do not own headphones adaptable with their Chromebooks, making video lessons and content difficult to concentrate on. I am also asking for an easel tripod so I can conduct mini lessons to small groups without having them move closer to the board, and also allowing me to travel with it to other groups for small group instruction.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
