Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

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

Curious, excited, and energetic are just a few words to describe the scholars in my classroom. Many of my scholars deal with extreme challenges at home and in their community but show up to school every day ready to learn and grow. Our school has 100% of students receiving free breakfast and lunch and has been labeled a priority school with in our district.

My mathematicians are full of energy, inquisitive, and always excited to take on a challenge, but they often lack the skills and support needed to believe in themselves.

Our classroom is home to a range of students with varying emotional and educational needs. Students math levels range from 1st grade to 6th grade in my 5th grade classroom. I focus primarily on 5th grade content but have to differentiate in many ways to make the content accessible to all students.

My Project

These headphones will allow each of my students to get the full experience out of our blended learning by allowing them the option for auditory learning. We have recently been given more technology and do not have enough headphones to go with each device. The past a few of my students have not taken care of materials which has ruined things for the majority of my students who want to learn as much as possible and appreciate every classroom material that they use. By giving each student their own personal set of headphones, I will be able to teach students how to care for their own materials and take ownership. It will also ensure that students who take pride in their materials have access to everything that they need!
