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 am spending my second year teaching online with 45 of the most creative, talkative, and energetic third grade kiddos I have ever met. My kiddos are almost entirely from East Africa, and either their parents or the kids themselves are immigrants.

Many of my students are SLIFE (Students with Limited or Interrupted Formal Education), and most are English Language Learners.

These kids are full of questions, and I love working hard to answer them each day.

Every day, I have a moment, or several, that remind me exactly why I chose to become a teacher. My kids are worth every late night, early morning, and the extra little gift I can find them.

These students have opened my heart to what I can do for them and the joy I share with them every time they succeed. Recently, we learned about text structures and text features. Nothing has made my heart happier than when my students come to me, eyes wide and excited when the book they chose from the class library had one of the features we have learned.

My students deserve the best, and that is what I want to give them!

My Project

Our school is small and has old technology. I said it. But that doesn't mean we need to halt instruction to wait for it! We are teaching fully online this year, and our computers have been dying during class! These cords would help keep that from happening! Our instruction needs extra battery life, and that's what these tools are for!

We want to serve our students all day, every day, and we are hoping these cords will keep us caught up!

We also want to be able to use a compatible doc cam substitute to accent our teaching with something interactive and easy to use. These tech tools may seem small, but in our class, they will be MIGHTY helpful for teaching our students!
