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 Project

I'm a first-time teacher trying to make a comfortable and fun environment for my students. I believe that in order to provide students with the best instruction possible, teachers need to be able to have all the supplies and resources that allow them to best do their job. As we all know, it's impossible to get all of these supplies ourselves on a teacher's salary. All of these pencils, file folders, and other supplies would help me stay organized and on top of things so that I can focus on creating fun, educational lessons for my students.
