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
I teach 5th grade at a Title I school in Florida. I currently see the entire 5th grade of 79 students whom each have diverse backgrounds. The majority of my students come from low-income homes. My classroom is departmentalized, so I teach Math, RTI, and Success Block. My students are very energetic and are always eager to learn new things by playing games. They are always asking questions and love to be engaged in interactive activities that require them to work together.
My Project
My class has individual iPads, that means 4 rotations of 25 students each is 100 students! Our students need durable headphones that can be used with our classroom iPads. We currently use our iPads for Math, Daily Centers, and online assessments.
Students need headphones so they can hear and concentrate on the material being presented and not get distracted.
The headphones we currently have are over a decade old or ones that go in your ear, which can only be used by one student. Over time, I have had to throw several headphones away because they quit working properly. Currently, I only have a handful of headphones that work.
