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

Dear Potential Donor,

Imagine a classroom where students are actively engaged, comfortably seated, and excited about learning.

This is the environment we're striving to create with our project to provide new stools for our classroom.

Currently, our classroom lacks enough sturdy and flexible seating options. Many of our students use old, wobbly chairs during small group instruction and independent work time. With your support, we aim to purchase high-quality stools that will provide our students with a more comfortable and adjustable seating solution.

These new stools will not only improve comfort but also support a more dynamic learning environment. Students will be able to move freely and focus better, ultimately enhancing their educational experience. Your generous donation will make a significant difference in creating a space where every student can thrive.

Our goal is to enhance both our math and reading centers with new, engaging resources, and we need your support to make this vision a reality. However, our current math center lacks the interactive and stimulating resources that can make learning math both fun and effective. With your generous donation, we aim to acquire a variety of new math manipulatives, and hands-on activities.

Reading center improvement are needed. Reading is the foundation of all learning, and we are dedicated to making it an enjoyable and impactful experience for every student. Our reading center currently has limited materials, and we seek to revitalize it with engaging literacy games and activities. By incorporating these new resources, we will provide students with dynamic tools to enhance their reading skills, build vocabulary, and improve comprehension, all while fostering a love for literature.

Thank you for choosing our project. Your support will directly contribute to a more engaging and comfortable learning environment for our students.

Warm regards,

Cortavious Davis
