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 are truly an amazing group that is eager to learn. I feel that they absolutely love learning and strive to do their best daily. However, their level of learning and individual learning struggles make it difficult for them to achieve their learning goal.
In our classroom, a variety of learning strategies and learning options are incorporated into our daily routine to ensure that each student's needs are met because it is imperative that they have the best educational experience that they can imagine.
It is truly a blessing to engage and interact with such an amazing group of students.
My Project
Help me give the students at my school sports equipment to enhance their activity time. For this project, I am requesting sporting equipment that will keep our students engaged and making activity time more productive. The gaming equipment being requested will keep our students active and fit.
Keeping our kids healthy mentally and physically is our priority!
At our school, we are hoping to create an environment in which our students are engaged in learning while building a collaborative mindset. When students work together, they learn from each other. By creating an environment to encourage students to work together, we create an atmosphere of learning. The sporting equipment being requested includes a soccer goal and balls, along with two spike ball activities. Student will interact with each other to learn how to play the games and later working as teams to compete with each other.
