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.

Prekindergarten students are the most curious learners. They are inquisitive in a quiet, hands on exploration kind of way. We a charter school in our nation's capitol and I have the distinct pleasure of shaping and molding young minds.

Children need opportunities to touch, feel and smell by engaging all of their senses to learn about the world around them. Educators do not always have the disposable income to make learning come to life. Young children love digging, exploring and water play.

These budding scientists, archeologists, philanthropists and explorers need sand and water table tools in order to have hands on minds on learning experiences. Children recall and retain lessons that they have to use all of their senses to learn. Sand and gravel in a water table along with shovels, pails and strainers will allow hours of discovery in our science corner.

Donors like you are the real reason why there is "no child left behind". You have supported teachers who want to bring the learning to life and have helped us to put much needed realistic materials into the hands of urban learners. Thank you for your contributions to the success of all learners.
