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 are amazing and love school and love learning and need an items that help create that calm and safe classroom environment. These items in the classroom will not only keep the students safe and healthy but will create a safe and healthy environment in the classroom.

The coil bind hole punch machine will allow me to create adaptive books for my students who are 6 years old and autistic.

My students will benefit from the adaptive books across all subjects by giving them more visuals and allowing it to be tactile as well.

My students are extremely unique and see the world in a wonderful way. Every day with them is like going on a new adventure. I love being with them and only want what's best for them. My students show me that they love school and want to learn all that they can, and I want to give them everything they need to help them succeed academically and emotionally.
