My Students

We are a Title I, K-5 elementary school located in the heart of North Portland. We are a majority Black and Brown student community with a diverse population of over 18 different languages. 100 percent of our students receive free school lunch. We try and address as many needs as possible at our school, but often lack the funding to provide the supports we need.

Many of our English Language Learners come to our school with no prior schooling.

The challenge of learning English and building proficiency in content subjects is overwhelming for many of our students. A lack of prior schooling has many of our refugee students completing schoolwork several grade levels behind their peers.

My Project

We would like to use wireless game trivia buzzers and LCD writing tablets to make our small groups more interactive.

We want to make formative assessments more engaging for our students.

Our students love playing trivia games in class and adding game buzzers provides an opportunity to give our kids tangible manipulatives that make learning fun.

Our traditional white boards and dry erase markers often need to be replaced. LCD writing tablets have a much longer shelf life with less pieces for clean up. They also save instructional time in class since they do not pencils that need to be sharpened or tissues that need to erase.
