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
Our students attend an inner-city public school where approximately 90% live below the poverty line. We spend a lot of time doing hands-on learning.
All of our students receive free or reduced-price lunch and participate in the backpack program on the weekends.
This does not stop our students from coming to school and showing their love for learning. We love to explore everything around us, both inside and outside of the classroom. We love to show what we know and learn in a hands-on way.
My Project
We are requesting sturdy and bright communication folders for their work. These materials will make a difference in our students lives because it will give the entire grade level a uniform take home and communication folder.
Our students thrive on routines and knowing what will happen every day.
These folders will become a part of their daily routine. Turning in their folders when they arrive every day and making sure that all of their papers are in them at the end of the day to go home is a big deal. Also it gives parents a place to look for notes and special notices every day!
DonorsChoose is the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.
