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

My students light up my world with their eagerness to learn and gain knowledge. Although they are faced with challenges because of their socioeconomic status, they manage to push themselves to the limit and give me their all.

Our daily promise to each other is to always give your best and learn something new every day.

The love and bonds I have built with them will be lifelong. My school is a Title I school so most of my students have experienced difficulties and struggles. My students are grateful and appreciate all I try to do to make their learning fun and enjoyable.

My Project

My students are in need of coloring materials that can make their learning unique and special to them. These materials will allow my students to think outside the box and create meaning for themselves. With these materials, we can color our world with unique creations.

The donation of coloring pencils and markers will boost my students’ creativity, imagination, and make the learning special and their own.

Creating an environment where children are free to express themselves allows learning to take place. In addition, it gives children the opportunity to make learning concepts a personal experience where there is no limit.
