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

Please help me purchase some back to school classroom needs:

The band aids are a much needed first aid item that I never have enough of.

The washcloths are for my non-erasable white boards.

The chair pads will allow me to move furniture around the room with ease.

And finally, the laminator will replace my broken one from last year. This item is essential to keeping student and classroom name tags, pictures, etc. last longer.

Words cannot express my gratitude for helping me take care of my students as we transition into a new school year!

Ms. D
Grades 3-5
