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 come from a low income/high-poverty part of the city where they need opportunities to succeed. Kindergarten children need to start their learning journey early.
I teach at a Title I school in Virginia where 100% of our students receive free breakfast and lunch.
For some of my students, this is their first school experience and I want to make it a great one. They really enjoy school and learning. As little learners, they also love to read, write, and grow.
My Project
My students have access to several chromebooks. However, we only have four headsets. Therefore the other chrome books often go unused.
I want to give my students multiple opportunities to use technology in the classroom.
The classroom curriculum is always changing and evolving. There are the basic subjects such as: Math, Literacy, Science, and History. Now there is also STEM and who knows what might be coming next. If we had enough headsets we could use all the chrome books at the same time and we would not have to worry about it getting too loud and disturbing our classmates.
Please help my students become college ,career, and citizen ready.
