My Project

My students are young. It is important that I show them the value that different cultures and races bring. With Black History Month coming, I would like these items to use as a way to introduce the month to my students.

The kids will see that different people all have intrinsic worth and do great things for society.

By providing my students with items where they can see various skin tones, it is my hope that they will see that all people regardless of what is outside, have lots to deliver to society and to our learning. Respect begins at young ages and I am happy to be involved to do my part.
