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

Everything on my list will help enhance student learning and will hopefully give my students the desire to want to learn. I teach at a very low income based school and all supplies have to be bought by me or parent donations.

The crayons help foster creativity and allow the students to express themselves.

The headphones will help them be able to utilize their Chromebooks to full capacity during state testing ensuring accuracy on results.

The seating will foster the students’ ability to experience flex seating during reading groups which will hopefully encourage them to look forward to reading. The games are for the students during indoor recess to give them a chance to play with the other students.
