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 students walk into our classroom every day full of life, ready to learn, and excited for what is in store for them that day. I ask them how they're doing and have replaced my hugs with fist-bumps due to COVID-19. My daily greeting is so important because so many of them don't receive a kind word or hug when they leave home daily. I want them to know that I love to care for and believe in them when they walk through the doors of my classroom.
I'm a teacher in North Las Vegas, NV and my students come from one of the lower-income areas, but their income situation doesn't keep them from striving to be the best that they can be.
I want them to know that they can conquer the world and any task they set their minds to. As we study the various components of English language arts, I want them to garner the most knowledge about this subject, to become great writers, readers, and researchers, and to do this in a clean-air environment.
My Project
COVID-19 has really changed the way I have to teach, and daily I have more and more students home on quarantine due to the virus. My classroom has limited ventilation, as our windows don't open to allow fresh air in.
Fresh-air circulating will help my students breathe better with their masks on, and make them more comfortable in the classroom.
Sanitization is also a factor, and the Clorox wipes and spray will help keep the desk sanitized after every class period. Cleanliness and safety are important to the learning environment.
