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

My students love using hands-on learning tools. They enjoy building with magnetic tiles and using Play-Doh which promotes imagination and creative play. We have reading initiatives throughout our school to promote reading fluency. Jumbo bean bag seating gives the students something special to look forward to while they're in my reading corner. This project also includes treasure box items for students' rewards for working hard and displaying good classroom behavior.

The goals for this project are to promote imagination, and sensory and creative play, increase reading fluency, and reward students for their hard work.

Each of my students brings their own unique experiences, cultures, and perspectives, enriching the classroom dynamic. Their eagerness to learn and explore new ideas fosters a lively and engaging learning environment. Every student has their own talents and skills, whether in academics, arts, sports, or social interactions. Many students demonstrate remarkable perseverance, overcoming challenges and adapting to new situations. Their imaginative thinking and problem-solving approaches can lead to innovative ideas and projects. The relationships they build with each other and with me create a supportive atmosphere where everyone feels valued. Their willingness to learn from mistakes and strive for improvement is inspiring and sets a positive example for others.
