African American Celebration

Help me give my students activities to make African American Month a great celebration.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. YOUNG's classroom raised $500

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students are very excited to celebrate African American History Month. They are very helpful in planning events to add to the celebration. My students would benefit greatly from African American Hands On manipulatives with positive and exciting images that look like them so that they can believe in their abilities. Adding these hands-on items to our current supplies would enhance interest in learning materials that are available to my students. Students will be provided with opportunities to use items and share these items with fellow classmates and buddies in lower grade levels
