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

Growing minds, funny, helpful, and sweet--this group of students has been such a treat! I look forward to seeing them face to face and how well well they work in our classroom community.

They all are different in their own way.

There are a few who struggle to stay focused but I love to see a posture shift and a regain of focus after a one. Rather or not the answer they yell out is right or wrong and is beautiful to see how they return to the group feeling confident and ready trying to focus and participate in our group learning.

My Project

At this time, many students have broken or have been unable to purchase new headphones. Since returning to face to face learning, it has been difficult to do small group/one on one instruction while our students are on an individualized learning program via their Chromebooks.

The computers without headphones have caused more noise in the classroom and a more difficult time hearing other students in groups and one on one.

At this time we are still trying to keep a safe distance between students and teachers headphones can help facilitate safer instruction without getting closer to hear.
