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 Advanced Law Studies and US History at a low-income Title I school in Jacksonville, Florida. Most of my students come from struggling, if not dangerous, neighborhoods where the school is the only source of development, they have access to. Working with them, I see their passion and curiosity to understand what I teach them. They already have enough struggle outside of school, I want my classroom to be a haven where they can see the potential, they all have.
My Project
The tablets will enhance my students learning experience in the classroom. Our technological resources are limited at the school, the kids must share 2 computers to even learn the lesson for the day. I sacrifice bringing my own technology from home to add as an extra resource because I don’t want any child excluded from educational growth.
In addition, they will no longer fall behind in their studies or feel left out when other students use our limited technological resources.
They will have access to programs that technology can only provide which will help enhance their academic capabilities. I reach out to you, seeking any form of aid to provide technology for my class.
I am confident that rotation and differentiated learning will be a breeze and my students will enjoy it more if they have the tools they need in class. This project will give them the chance to do something fun and different in class.
