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
Hi! I currently teach 5th at a Title 1 Elementary school in Tuscaloosa, AL. As we begin a new school year, it is important that I restock our classroom library with new. We plan to spend a lot of time this school year enjoying quiet reading time with tangible books in our hands.
My goal is to have tons of new, exciting, diverse books at the fingertips of each child so that every child can find enjoyment in what they read. Please help restock our classroom library with some new, diverse, exciting reads for this school year.
This classroom project was brought to life by Seed to Read
and 7 other donors.
