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

We are a school dedicated to engage our students in rigorous educational experiences. My students are diverse learner who are inquisitive, hard working, and compassionate students who come to school ready to work hard, learn something new, and make strives towards their post-secondary goals. As a local public high school on the southside of Chicago, our school aims to give our students equitable access to rigorous instruction every single day as well as build smart and strong young adults ready for the world beyond the walls of our high school.

My Project

Nobody likes a boring math class. Math should be fun, engaging, and meaningful! I always strive to breath life into math and I want to give my students opportunities and understandings that books cannot offer and to see math in action in the real world.

This TV will allow students to connect the math we learn inside the classroom to its usefulness in real world outside.

Through this technology, my students will engage in mathematics by connecting to outside resources via YouTube, TedTalks, Google Classroom, Khan Academy, Desmos and many more online platforms. My students will be able to do individual presentations, class demonstrations and interactive class activities. The options are plentiful!
