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 Project

Students don't need a perfect teacher. Students need a happy teacher. One way to relieve a stressor in my room is to have charging stations for my students' iPads. I do have individual charging cords for their device, but it takes me so long to ensure they are charged when they use them. I do have one charging station but it only holds 6 iPads. Throughout the day, I have to switch devices out to ensure they are at 100%. In addition, I sometimes have to use every plug in my room to have them fully charged. It will certainly make it easier on my students to get their own charger and it will pretty much guarantee that all the devices will be charged.
