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 awesome students come from a high-poverty, rural area with high unemployment rates. They come with a willingness to work and learn. My school has a diverse ethnic community with a 100% free lunch program. Our school strives to promote a positive learning environment for all students. My second grade class enjoys being exposed to a variety of learning opportunities and materials in different classroom settings. It is always exciting to see their excitement when I introduce something new into the classroom.
My Project
Students are working on different computer programs throughout the school day and can be easily distracted by sounds around them. They will have fewer distractions by having access to an adequate number of working headphones. We are currently limited to a few sets of working headphones. Many of those are missing ear pieces and have cords that are damaged due to excessive use. New headphones will support student learning in both Math and Language Arts through online learning. Students will be able to pursue online learning independently while small group instruction is happening in the classroom. This will help students remain focused.
