My Project

My classroom encompasses a variety of cultural and economic backgrounds, each student having different, but often pretty limited life experiences and exposure to real life situations. The age that I teach, upper elementary, is a time of growth and change not only physically but mentally and emotionally as well.

My students are curious beings, waiting to dive deeper into their interests and passions and in today's day and age they do this primarily through the means of some kind of technology and/or social media platform!

However, many of them are lacking the adequate resources or educational experience to explore the world outside of their own local neighborhoods safely. About 60% of the students in my school are economically disadvantaged which means that many of them come from a household with very limited income, and therefore very limited resources, opportunities, and viewpoints. Many of them do not have the experiences needed in order to draw upon and apply to their learning and interactions, but they do have the desire.

The books I have included will help me to update my library in order to teach my students vital skills to ensure their safety in online spaces and guide them on their technological journey. Students need to be aware of the risks and dangers that exist online from an early age. Through powerful yet simple words and interesting illustrations, my students will be able to relate to, discuss, and question these topics in a safe and supportive environment, which will then better ensure they will be more cautious online and be more likely to seek adult clarification and/or assistance when needed.
