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 teach in a Title I school with high poverty. Our school is currently funded by a grant for free breakfast and lunch for all students. Our class is composed of students from many backgrounds including students with different languages spoken in the home. We have a mix of boys and girls from five to six years old. This is the first school experience for many of my students.

Students are excited about all aspects of the school including lessons, arts infusion activities, experiments, ​and social interactions.

The enthusiasm our children exhibit motivates and encourages me.

My Project

Kindergarten students need hands-on experiences to understand their environment. I want to provide my students' opportunities to create for themselves. By adding these tools to my classroom, we will be able to grow plants, investigate the life of ants, and program a robot.

Engaging my students with experiments that they plan and implement will not only motivate them but also encourage critical thinking skills.

As students program their robot to maneuver around obstacles they are not only learning to code, but they will also be problem solving. Growing their own plants and caring for an ant farm will provide students opportunities to witness life cycles in the classroom
