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

The pencils and paper will allow all students to be prepared to learn. The anchor charts will be used as visualizations for the students. The headphones will allow them to be able to focus on their own work when working on devices. The wipes will be used to keep everyone’s area sanitized. The markers will be used by the students when working on the board. The copy paper will be useful for drawings and printing out assignments. The chair will be useful as I don’t have one. Thank you in advance for considering these supplies.
