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 students are most engaged in their learning when they are able to work on projects. I teach second grade at an inner city magnet school.
We have been told that there is no more money to purchase supplies. The second grade is going to start a new social studies unit. We are requesting construction paper and card stock to for projects that will share what the children learned. The children will be learning about how things changed over time and the impact of these changes. We would like the children to create graphic organizers and field trip journals. Our classes will be going on a walking field trip through the historical neighborhood where is school is located. Students will be able to see turn of the century homes and building in contrast to the skyscrapers above the tree line in the park. The walking field trip does NOT cost the school any money.
The materials I requested would be used to create different ways for our children to express and share what they have learned.
Your support of this project will ensure that the second graders I teach will not feel the effect of the budget cuts.
