  • African American Books For Classroom Library

    Funded Jan 16, 2022

    The books have really impacted my classroom by giving the students a different perspective. The books have allowed the students to become more vocal in class discussions.

    Reading is 2 hours long in my classroom. This includes whole and small group reading. I teach whole group first where I teach the standards. Then students work on writing skills or some type of writing that we have been going over.

    All my students are enjoying the books because they get to see themselves inside the book. They are finally reading about people that mean something to them and that they have history about.”

  • Getting Books in Students' Hands

  • African American Children Books

    Funded Mar 22, 2022

    Thank you so very much for your donations. I truly appreciate it so much. My students will love them. These books will help to enrich my lessons by being more culturally diverse and responsive. Again thank you for making this dream come true for my students. This wouldn't have been possible without you all.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Crance

    This classroom project was brought to life by Munchkin and 4 other donors.
I teach 2nd grade at an all African American boys prep school. The STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) is taught through the lens of African-American history, culture, and culturally responsive teaching and learning strategies. These books will help the student to be able to see themselves in the books and in their learning. I will use these books at the beginning of the morning to teach Social Emotional Learning. That way I ensure that all students are on the same page going to school. Most of the books I chose will enhance their learning by being able to feel comfortable with their well-being. Having these books will allow students to have a deeper level of understanding of their culture. I want these books to inspire my boys that they can be anything they want to be. It's hard being a boy of color in the world today and I want my students to succeed. I want them to be able to read the books and respond to their reading. I just want to create a classroom that welcomes all and passes no judgment on anyone.
