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 work with students who are active in a number of different school organizations. I hope that through these organizations, my students find and develop their passions, grow as independent thinkers, and come together as a school community.

Our students come from many cultures and backgrounds, making up an incredibly vibrant school community.

Each day, our students support and encourage one other. Our school provides each individual with opportunities to develop as a whole person and strives to offer a wide variety of academic and extracurricular opportunities.

My Project

The materials that we are asking for will make a difference in my students' learning by helping with speaking clearly and understanding their words. Here at our school, videotaping and critiquing their class projects is a part of everyday learning. By using the soundboard and microphones, students can review their projects and critique there work and fix any mistakes before turning in their assignments or performing them. There are many students, here at our school, who are also in speech classes. We will use the wireless microphones to help with speaking. The students will use the wireless microphones to record their projects to be shared in class with the other students. We use drama to help build self-esteem to reach others. We also use drama in encouraging the student with speaking.

Drama is part of real-life and prepares students to deal with life’s problems.

Drama simply allows students the opportunity to rehearse roles, further giving form or shape to the individual and personal ideas and feelings they are naturally experiencing. Overall, this allows students to make sense of their ‘real’ life problems.

Drama develops verbal and nonverbal communication that can reach others through plays and singing. Through different characters, students share the opportunity to expand their problem-solving skills both verbally and non-verbally, making room for a sense of creativity. As well, students practice and build upon various communication skills through the use of body language, facial expressions, and different voices.

The materials that we are asking for will be used to help our students, to build their confidence in speaking and presenting their plays and musicals to reach others.
