My Project

I love my students' curiosity. I love that they are friendly, playful, kind and funny. They enjoy bursting through the classroom doors and sharing hugs. They have great imaginations and could easily convince you that their stories are real.

Most of my students are from low-income families; they do not have access to the basic educational tools to help them blossom.

The materials will be used to develop motor and language skills as well as identify colors and letters. The sensory and tactile tools will help them experience a calm, fun-filled learning environment to help them bloom.

Ms. Thom Dr Jacqueline Peek - Davis School Grades PreK-2

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.
