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 children have a high interest in learning. Students come from high poverty neighborhoods, which results in a large percentage of free or reduced-price lunch recipients. My children are beginning to learn how to become life-long learners.
My students need materials so they are able to complete learning at home with their teacher.
This is their first year of school. They are starting their school journeys. As their teacher, I strive to give them as many new learning opportunities as possible in their first year of school. I teach them to be independent and responsible students. Since this year has been virtual from the beginning, it has been more difficult to make sure that my students have the materials that they need to be successful.
My Project
These materials will be used by teachers and students to support virtual learning. Some students have multiple children attempting to work online with their teachers and classes at the same time. Extra noise and distractions can interfere with some student's learning.
The headphones would allow students to focus in on their own learning.
Students can be easliy distracted by others and when mutiple classes are going on, it can be difficult to stay focused on their own learning in their own classrooms.
I would like touch screen computers for my young students during this time of virtual learning. It can be difficult for some students at this young age to use the finger pad to access our classroom and their work. The touch screen computers would make it easier for my students to access their own learning independently.
