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

I love reading. I like to read professional development books to keep up with best teaching practices.

I need professional development books to help me become a better teacher.

My books are currently outdated in my classroom and are not up-to-date. I need current professional development books, it will be much easier to grow as a teacher if I have the resources. I also will share them with my colleagues. This will allow me to get new research-based best practices that I need in order to be the best teacher I can be.

Thank you for supporting my classroom.

Mrs. Mcconnell
Grades 3-5
