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 a new teacher in a low income and high poverty school in Kentucky. My students are faced daily with many challenges that they cannot control. What I can control is what education I provide them at school. Part of my job is providing these students with everything they need in order to be successful. One way to do this is to make sure we have all the materials they need in order to succeed. Most of my students are behind academically, so we have no time to waste. Every minute is valuable and needs to be utilized correctly to help these students grow academically.
My Project
These tablets would allow my students to still access educational websites like RAZ kids during center work independently. Every day, my students check the center rotation schedule to see if it's their turn to get on the computers. When it's their turn they get so excited, and when it's not their turn they are disappointed. They wouldn't have to be disappointed anymore with these 6 Kindle Fires.
In my classroom we have four computers and only three of those computers work on a good day.
My students love to get on the computers, but there just isn't enough working computers for everyone in one group of 6 to get on them.
