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 Students
Worrying about food, money, transportation, and clothing are adult worries, yet many of the students at my school face these "grown-up" problems each day. In spite of the challenges they face, they constantly rise to the occasion and frequently blow me away with their abilities to learn.
My students come from a wide variety of backgrounds.
Some have, and some do not. It is my job to level their playing field so that all have a chance to be successful. Through hands-on, exciting, and active assessment, all students in my second grade, inner-city classroom prove themselves time and time again.
My Project
My kids love to read! They like to read on the floor, on the classroom couch, on bean bags...You name it, they read on it. I am always looking for new fun items to add to our reading nooks around the classroom. When I saw these stools, I knew that I would have to have some for my classroom. The Hokki stool looks like the perfect sitting place for that student who just needs to move and sit at the same time. This is my second Hokki project. I have received 2 stools from generous donors already. I cannot wait for generous donors to supply these great tools for my classroom.
My kids are the best!
They deserve the best in every aspect of life, especially in their education. Help me to help them achieve their best by partnering with me to get them these hands-on learning tools so that we can take our learning on the road. You will help this class and many students to come. Thanks in advance for your generous support!
