My Project

I have had the honor to spend this year with a group of awesome students. My students are diverse in several areas and come into school every day ready to work and be successful. We have already made so much progress academically and personally this year. The rolling desk will be used to navigatge the classroom while delivering instructions to the students-this will allow for the most interaction with students as the location of my desk are not in ideal spots to do both. The poster boards will be used for our Black History Month research projects as well as our state research projects and and presentations.

We need headphones to continue our progress and allow my students to work independently, without interruption.

While most of our class work is paper based, we have several independent assignments that require audio, that's where the headphones comes into play. Students did start the year with headphones, but unfortunately, they were poor quality and most of them stopped working.

This project will allow them to continue to be successful in the classroom and achieve our testing goals!

THANK YOU!
