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

My students are trying to learn despite these pandemic challenges. They are coming to school each day to learn. Though it is difficult for them to do virtual and face-to-face instructions, they never gave up.

100% of my students are receiving free lunch and came from below average earning families.

Educators are still making a great impact in students' lives. Our students need to have an effective learning environment in this very challenging time.

Teachers are serving as a firewall in this huge challenge of a pandemic. We are still expected to deliver the best services for our children. We are still making a difference in their lives. We are still committed to making every child make a huge leap in learning. We are working hard in these difficult times!

My Project

I am teaching 1st grade students for ELA and Social Studies. As I provide the best possible teaching process, I need to make sure that I have effective technology that is dependable at all times. Students will benefit a lot in this project because I can present the lesson effectively each day. There will be no more waiting time for them when I have more unfailing technology material.

As a teacher, we are expected to make impossible possible!

I am teaching both face-to-face and online instructions -daily Monday to Friday. I have two groups of 20 precious kids.

This challenging academic year will be very remarkable both for the teachers and students. We are both creating an environment that will make the learners successful!
