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 love to be active learners. They are very inquisitive students who want to know the ins and outs of everything they interact with. I picked my students up today to begin class, and they each had something they just couldn't wait to share with me ranging from how excited they were to make ice cream today, a hands-on project that turned liquid into a solid, to how a big brother helped one student with her homework last night. Each student was so excited to be at school.
Sometimes this excitement makes me forget the environments that most of my students survive in while they are not at the school building.
Some students have no help with homework at home because mom works overnight in order to ensure they have a safe place to live. These families are struggling, but my students still put on smiling faces each and every day when they walk into my classroom.
My Project
We are lucky enough to receive 15 iPads from our school to use in our classroom on a daily basis. I have written grants, and procured enough iPads for us to ALMOST be at a 1 to 1 iPad classroom. I am writing this grant because we have received a new student in class and we do not have enough iPads for everyone! I don't want this student to feel left out and sharing an iPad can only last so long without getting that "left out" feeling. I am asking for an iPad, a screen protector and iPad case to keep the iPad safe for years to come. Please consider donating to our project so that not only do we have enough iPads for everyone but so that when we do whole group instruction, use iPads during independent work time or play review games (like Kahoot!) that everyone can learn and participate!
