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 are incredible 6th graders in Washington, DC. As the 6th grade social worker, I work with all 6th graders but have a specific caseload of students that receive behavioral support services via their IEP's or 504 plans.
My students have varying needs- some are autistic, some have intellectual disabilities, and others are diagnosed with ADHD, anxiety, depression, or have other learning challenges.
They are eager to learn and are happy to be back!
My Project
With a shortage of devices at our school, this laptop touch screen computer will be used for students who require alternative learning due to the nature of their special needs. The evidence-based computer programs (Centervention, Oneder) will read aloud and one (Centervention) provides a video game-like experience to keep their interest and teach social emotional skills. They also will be able to use the laptop to meet their educational needs.
The laptop will also allow for this worker to provide group services via a smartboard to utilize mindfulness videos, skill-building videos, and social stories.
There are so many great resources online now and my students deserve to be able to access them!
