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

Our class is constructed of 10 girls and 6 boys that typically come from low income families.

The jumbo building bricks, magna tiles and window blocks will allow the students to use their imagination to be creative and productive.

Our young architects will grow and create in our block center, should you make their dreams come true.

The beginning sounds, magnetic letter builders and the build the letter activity center will stimulate their minds and strengthen their alphabet knowledge through construction.

Thanking you in advance for all that you do for our nation's children. YOU ROCK!
