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

The materials that I am asking for will make such a difference in our classroom. These items will help to create a safe and creative environment for learning every day. The organization bins will offer a safe space for our classroom materials, the bean bags will offer a comforting alternative to desks, the treasure chest will provide much needed rewards for good behavior, and the Other items will supply my students and I with items we need to learn efficiently! These items will spruce up our classroom and make it feel comforting, bright, and creative! All I want for my students is for them to have a special space, because they are so special to me! They deserve to have a comforting safe space to learn and a place to encourage their creativity!

Grades 9-12
