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 Project

As elementary schoolteacher I always am looking for a way to store their papers and keep their writing tools available. One good source was folders that are easy for the students to use on their own and pencil case.

These folders will be perfect for my students to use every day.

The pencil case will keep their writing supplies in one place with easy access for them to use. They will use both, every day in all subject areas. With your generous help this will become possible and a reality in my classroom.
