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
The students in our school are pretty awesome. Our school is a Title I school in northeast Baltimore and has about seven hundred students. Ninety five percent of the students receive free breakfast and lunch. Despite the fact that many of them are performing below grade level in reading and math, they come eager and ready to learn each day. The staff works hard to meet the needs of the students and this year we implemented a house system to promote a sense of family within our school community.
My Project
My students love to use computers but we don't always have enough headphones to go around. Having a large school, our equipment gets a lot of use and we are constantly replacing headphones. I know my students will appreciate new headphones and will take care of them.
These headphones will give my students the opportunity to practice their skills in responding to questions for school level and state level tests.
Most of our testing is done online and any extra practice really helps. We will also use them for listening centers within the classroom for pleasure and practice of reading and math skills.
