My Project

My students consist of multi-academic levels. Known as the "COVID" group, my students give great effort at working at their potential and beyond.

Therefore, having resources to provide for my students will help them deepen their learning of the concepts) being taught through the use of available devices and media.

The science topic to be taught is "Types of Energy." The portable dry erase desktop board and stand will help with my differentiated students in small group participation or intervention.

Through art, students will use colored pencils to record notes and drawings, complete art worksheets, etc. Having a designated pencil sharpener to sharpen both lead and colored pencils will remedy the problem of having to replace pencil sharpeners often damaged by the material makeup of colored pencils that affect the rotary mechanism.

The requested earphones will help to replace and provide adequate amount for the entire class of students. Many times, existing earphones are damaged and not easily replaced. My students will use their laptops to do inquiries and assignments using various learning platforms.

The requested head set with microphone will help me to provide adequate voice level throughout the classroom. Having a spacious classroom, my eak loudly for students are assigned seating positions that require for me to speak loudly for all to hear. This device will help my students to clearly and adequate hear instructions given to them, and will help stop the consistent condition of me having hoarse voice because of straining myself speaking loudly.

My students are special because it is my task to help these group of kids to rebound themselves from the effects of the covid experience and the challenges of the pandemic that affected their learning progression. Being able to provide necessary tools and devices will help my students extremely.
