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 an incredible, inquisitive and bright group of seventh graders who love to learn. They go to a a magnet school for the gifted students in our inner city school district which qualifies for 100% Free and Reduced Lunch status.
My students have a wide range of skills and interests, and I try my best to create an environment that caters to all of their needs.
I use multiple teaching strategies and differentiate by providing student-led projects. My classroom is always filled with questions, answers, imagination and joy.
My Project
The use of a projector is daily in our classroom. Projecting lessons and directions is a constant aid for visual learners. The projector also allows students to give professional presentations using technology. The document camera would be an amazing addition to our classroom, allowing me to model activities on the actual books and worksheets that students are provided.
By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement.
Students will be able to better focus on the academic material at hand. Plus in this technology literate world, any interaction with updated technology will increase their literacy as well as their desire to learn and use the new technology!
