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
100 percent of our students come from low-income single-parent homes and they have high needs, but they have even higher hopes! Our school is in the heart of downtown and serves two public housing projects where many of our kids live. Some of their most basic needs like uniforms, food, or even shelter are oftentimes not met, but they are kind, caring, loving students who are willing to learn and grow.
Our students may have high needs, but we have high hopes that each student can and will be successful!
It's critical that we make sure they reach their greatest potential and empower them to be the best that they can be! We don't pity, We empower!
My Project
Students will have a chance to play soccer during organized recess! Students actually have lost the art of playing and it's sad to see students sitting on the sideline during recess because they say it's nothing to do! Well, the plan is to change that by helping them learn the basic techniques of soccer and enjoy the collaboration with other classmates. Collaboration and being a good sport is a characteristic all students should have and this organized recess fun will help me teach students those critical life skills this year!
