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 Students

We have come a long way from chalk boards in the primary classroom. I am lucky enough to have a smart board. However there are somethings that are a staple in any primary classroom!

I teach 1st grade in a community where the population of the students at my school are mostly African American.

I will have 26 students in my class this year. The families that I teach want the best for their children. Even though they may not be cable of providing the best. I want to be able to help give their children what they need and deserve.

My Project

We need a multi-purpose and portable teaching easel to use for general instruction. Picture if you will, 26 little eager eyes looking up at you, waiting to be engaged and learn something new. Whole group instruction takes place often during our school day. Students are gathered together in the meeting area, learning together. The teacher and her/his easel are the focus point of the lesson. There I can model how to write letters of the alphabet, show a big book, teach math strategies, how to write a sentence, and so much more.

With your help I can teach my children the skills necessary.

Having this easel and pointers will make it possible for learning to become efficient and accessible. I will also be able to make it through a lesson without fiddling around for materials.
