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

I'm an elementary school teacher working in a low socioeconomic community. At school, 100% of our students receive free meals. Our school's resources depend primarily on our Title I funding which definitely makes it difficult to provide my students with any additional classroom equipment and essential classroom supplies that may help to enhance their academic learning environment. Also, limited funding hinders our ability to have additional classroom visual and performing arts materials, and P.E. equipment to help maintain an adequate physical education regimen.

Due to the financial household strains of most of my students, affordability and accessibility to various resources create a huge challenge.

Despite these odds, my students are worker bees and I would love to give my students the opportunity to have access to a variety of academic and physical resources and/or supplies.

In addition to reading, writing, solving math problems, being creative and imaginative in the arts and/or sciences, my students would love to have access to all essential classroom supplies that would assist and foster their academic learning environment, in and outside of the classroom. We need help in order for us to showcase what we really can do!

My Project

My students are into exploring and researching various places around the world. During Social Science lessons, students have virtually visited different continents, and globally seen the unforeseeable.

The new laptop computers and stylus pens will make it easier to create projects when the students are working in their cooperative learning groups.

The students will be able to add more details, color, structure to drawings, etc as they practice their architectural skills.

After creating the projects using Google slides and other learning platforms, students will present or share their research works with others.
