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 Project
My students love performing in exciting dance productions. Being able to participate in these quality dance experiences increases their self esteem and their appreciation for the arts. It also cultivates a sense of school pride and sisterhood. They love to impress and pleasantly surprise their audience through these showcases of dance talent and hard work. They also value the magic that spectacular props add to their dance performances.
The set of bluetooth hoverboards will be used as a STEAM project to create unique dance works and performances.
The hoverboards would be used by the students to create unique floor patterns and movement qualities unlike anything they have experienced before. By utilizing the hoverboards, the students will use technology to create and enhance their dance choreography. This experience will be an awesome implementation of our school's STEAM objective and focus. It is often the goal of our dancers to impress and exceed expectations. The bluetooth hoverboards will enable our dance students to meet that goal while engaging with a STEAM curriculum.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
