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 Project

My kids have been going over internet safety and literacy, and are looking forward to using our school Chromebooks in class. However, my library does not currently have enough headphones for each student to have their own pair. By purchasing more headphones, each student will be able have their own and work at their own pace.

Without headphones, they can be easily distracted by where other students are, instead of focusing on their own work.

This could result in them not fully understanding our lessons, which could hinder their understanding as we move forward.
