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

My students come to school every day ready to learn. Being only 4 and 5 years old my students aren't able to read yet, making my classroom more organized will allow my students to be independent learners. Social and self help skills are the main focus in Pre-K at the very beginning of the school year, having an organized, labeled room allows my students to gain access to supplies that are needed for learning on their own. Becoming independent gives my students a huge sense of accomplishment; they love being "big kids".

I like to have supplies readily available for my students to use during small group or free choice.

Having specific, labeled containers will allow my students to put items away where they belong on their own and keep our classroom organized for everyday learning.
