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

Do you remember getting so excited to learn new things as a child? Think of the anticipation and excitement you felt exploring new concepts. My students share that excitement and joy in learning new things. They are inquisitive, voracious scientists who are excited to discover the newest engineering practices and to solve current problems in their community.

My students are impeccable, inquisitive avid readers and enthusiastic learners.

Students at my school are curious, compassionate, and creative. I am the science teacher at a middle school in an impoverished urban area.

Like everyone else we are trying to make science fun and engaging during a pandemic. Our school is hybrid with most students fully virtual due to limited class space allowing safe distancing for everyone.

My amazing students are often home caring for younger siblings because their parents are essential workers. This means they are responsible for their siblings as well as their own education in the place of the parent. This allows us teachers to reach out in more ways than ever. Diversity is very important amongst my students and they are truly valued.

My Project

The online learning platform Study.com platform makes education affordable, effective and engaging with short, fun video lessons created by qualified instructors. It is a great avenue for learning for many of our pupils who are currently struggling with the current online learning set up, and perhaps need a different learning approach. Study.Com allows access to learning materials at all times, even an option to download the lessons and learn while offline. In addition, our students tend to take care of their siblings, which can be stressful, and Study.com can take that pressure and stress away from our students by ensuring they receive as much access to learning materials as possible.
