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

I am fortunate enough to work with the Head Start early learning initiative program. Some of these students have never been exposed to formal education. The children come from low-income families who need to meet specific criteria to be accepted. These children are in need of hands-on experiences that will help give them a great foundation for their educational path. As a teacher it is my responsibility to make learning fun and engaging. With your help, I can open up a world of learning that these children could only hope for.

My school is a public elementary school located in Florida.

There are approximately 520 students that are enrolled at the school and identify primarily as Black, non-Hispanic; Hispanic; and Multiracial. 12% of the schools students are "limited in English proficiency." 98% of the 520 students here get free and reduced lunch prices.

My Project

My students are in need of a new iPads to utilize various technological opportunities and so I can incorporate education with technology. The iPad Pro and mini iPad will allow the children to utilize technology in various ways. This technology will allow students will different learning abilities to be able to have access to various instructional methods and strategies.

Technology comes in all different forms and exposing my students to these various technological advances will help problem solve and use their critical thinking skills to create their own invention.

Introducing student to technology at such a young age will help them to stay up to date with the advances being made.
