Need to Reach Our Virtual Mentors!!

My students need tablets in order to communicate with their virtual mentors through a program I started called Telementoring. Students exchange messages in a shared online folder, video chat and read digital books.

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 kids tell me each day that they want to make me one happy teacher. And they do! They are Respectful, On-Task, Accountable, Responsible & Safe. These are our school's core values.

These first graders amaze me with their determination to improvement academically!

I have watched them make up a half of school year's worth of learning in just two months.

My babies are defying the odds and on their way to closing the achievement gap. They just need more support!

My Project

I started a program called Telementoring in hopes that each of my students would receive a virtual mentor. The response has been awesome. Adults are providing the much-needed encouragement, support and motivation that my students need.

The students' writing has improved tremendously and they are also progressing in reading.

This is aided by their online interaction with their mentors.

I need the tablets so I can set up a mentoring station. This would allow for more students to participate daily and expedite academic and social growth. Currently, we only have three desktop computers and when working, they are used to access our math software.

We have our Telementors. Please help use connect to them!
