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 serve a student population that is widely diverse, while made up of mostly minorities. We are an elementary school that serves many different minority populations. I have English language learners from a variety of different cultural backgrounds. However, the common thread through all of our students is that they want to learn and want to achieve. They are adventurous and engaged in the learning process.

We do serve a community that was hit hard by Hurricane Harvey.

Many of our families were displaced. Although it's been a year now, some are just now returning to their homes. The rebuilding process has been slow, especially for those who lost everything.

My students are awesome kids and deserve the same opportunities as all other students. This would indeed benefit them in many ways.

My Project

My robotics students are driven to accomplish the tasks and missions set before them. They are strengthening their problem solving skills and could use the expansion kits to offer them more building options.

The expansion kits will give them more parts to use as they test different prototypes in search of the best option to achieve their tasks.

Currently they are borrowing from the other teams robot kit. This puts that team at a disadvantage in not having all of their pieces available if needed. Our robotic builders are very creative and work hard to engineer a design that can efficiently accomplish the task.
