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 Project
As a kid and even into adulthood, I’ve always had a journal. Whenever I’m going through a rough time, not feeling my best, need some encouragement, feeling motivated or I just need to get my thoughts and emotions out, I wrote it in my journal. I would always feel a sense of relief afterwards which would do wonders for my mental health. My journal saved my life so I want to give my students that same opportunity.
I love my students from the bottom of my heart and what makes them special is their resilience.
Gifting them these journals is my way of showing my appreciation to them. These journals will assist them in their writing skills, being in tune with their emotions and giving them a better handle on their mental health.
