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

"You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself in any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. You are the guy who'll decide where to go." -Dr. Seuss.

My students have bright smiles and big personalities.

They attend a Title 1 (low income) school in North Carolina. Our school does not have "tons" of resources. They are eager to learn and need hands on materials to help them! They want to learn but simply need the resources to help them.

My Project

My students will be able to make concrete connections about writing with these materials. Students typically learn and retain more information in smaller settings. The learning centers will allow for small group instruction learning. Students will be able to read books about various parts of speech that will help enhance their independent writing.

Research shows that writing and reading are connected.

With these resources, students will be able to increase their writing skills which will help to increase their ability to read. Reading is the key to success. I want to give this gift to students for years to come!
