Leveling Up In Economics: Headphone Drive

Help me give my students headphones to use during our interactive lessons. This will also help me eliminate the issue of cell phones and earbuds in my classroom because there won't be any use for BYOD.

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

My students are bored easily and prefer engaging, interactive lessons. The traditional PowerPoint and graphic organizer is ignored. However, walking into a room with a code projected on the screen to log in to NearPod, Edpuzzle, Kahoot, Quizlet, Quizizz brings smiles to every face.

My students challenge me to deliver this type of experience every single day.

But the results are most definitely worth it. Paperless delivery seems to be the best option to reach my students and ensure that they reach mastery levels.

My Project

If my project is fully funded, students in my classes will be able to use more interactive tools in economics, personal financial literacy, and government/civics.

In personal financial literacy, students will be able to complete EverFi's online Financial Literacy interactive module that teaches students everything from budgeting to deciding whether to rent or own.

In Economics, students will finally be able to experience a full layout to my modified Flipped Classroom. With headphones, students will be able to watch videos on Edpuzzle and Nearpod. These videos are used to introduce concepts and to provide remediation. Also, headphones will be helpful for after school tutorials. Students will be able to work independently.
