My Students

My students are the 7th and 8th grade middle school kids in a K-8 school in Queens. A diverse group of students from varying socioeconomic backgrounds, they include all academic levels, students with disabilities, and ICT classes.

They are young adults striving to be the best they can be.

My students are currently in a room that now has lab tables instead of desks. They sit four together at a table and there is no way to separate them. While this is great for lab work and group assignments, it is not great in testing situations.

My Project

I am trying to get a class set of privacy boards. They can be used to give each student at the lab table a little private space of their own. While we all enjoy working in groups, sometimes we do need to work alone.

If I can separate my students even a little bit, independent work and success will be achieved.

Do you remember being a kid? Was there ever a temptation to take a quick glance at your neighbor's paper or to let your friend see your work just to help them out? If I can remove the temptation it will help them learn that they can succeed on their own. And I truly believe they all can succeed on their own.
