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

The guide strips offer a clear pathway through the text. With their distinct textures and colors, organization baskets provide a tangible system for me to sort and store materials, alleviating the anxiety of clutter and aiding focus during lessons. Sensory lights serve as gentle anchors in overwhelming environments, offering a calming retreat to reset and recharge. This is essential for maintaining engagement and participation in classroom activities.

Guide strips, organization baskets, sensory lights, and weighted stuffed animals are indispensable tools in the daily routine in my classroom.

Weighted stuffed animals are a gentle pressure that provides a soothing sensation, helping to regulate sensory input and promoting a sense of security.

Whether it's during independent study sessions or group activities, these weighted companions bolster student confidence and resilience, enabling them to actively engage with their peers.

Together, these supportive tools empower my students to navigate the academic landscape with confidence, fostering an inclusive learning environment where my students can thrive and reach their full potential.
