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
Our class is a community. We have leaders, caretakers, coaches, friends, learners, etc. We do not have desks in our classroom. We sit, lay or stand wherever learning is best for us. We do not do "normal learning" by society's standards. We have FUN through learning! We are always engaged in a great activity that has to do with the lesson being presented. Learning through play and exciting activities throughout the day is our main goal.
Our class is a safe and happy place.
We learn through play and exciting activities in our lessons. We take time to listen and share our thoughts and knowledge among each other. The students at my school care about their education and are eager to learn. About 90% of the students are at or below the poverty line. But you wouldn't even know it when they walk into the classroom. These young minds come in ready for the day and always say, "I am ready to become smarter than my mom, dad, sister, and brother!"
My kids are a silly bunch with bright personalities and are always ready for any challenges that are presented to them throughout the day.
My Project
The materials purchased will make a difference in my students learning by creating safe and reliable technology for them to learn from. We are in need of new cases for our iPads inside and outside of the classroom. Last year, we used our class set of iPads for everything from learning games to assessments. Needless to say, they took a beating and the protective cases are falling apart. We are in need of kid-friendly, sturdy cases. In addition to this, our documentation camera and internet connection are outdated and are need of an upgrade.
The addition of these materials would help my little learners be the best "tech ready tots" for Kindergarten.
Our class is "all hands on deck" when it comes to technology. It is utilized on a daily basis.
