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

Students who are unable to read will be able to listen privately to read alouds without others knowing. Using tape to enforce physical space and setting boundaries helps a ton for visual learners. Being able to have a hole punch, tape, and sticky tack/foam squares will help me to hang student work and create a welcoming/decorative environment. By having adapted scissors as an option for those with limited fine motor skills, the learning is inclusive for everyone and differentiated to meet the individual needs of every student. Having chewy necklaces prevent self inflicted behaviors. All of these last minute supplies are just odds and ends that I have noticed we need (more of) during the school year.
