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

I serve over 200 students in 8 Title 1 schools. Before I begin an activity I love to read books to my students. Reading books is a transformative journey that not only enriches the mind but also nurtures essential skills. After reading, there are times when my students want to write about what was read to them. Some of my students are interested in writing their own story. The beginning of the school year, I would like to incorporate more writing in my lessons and give them that opportunity.

Writing fosters creativity, self expression, and the ability to articulate ideas effectively, which are essential skills for success in school and beyond.

I feel that it is important to have students start early with their writing. Most schools do not incorporate writing in their curriculum like they use to in the past.

With your help, you can help provide the basic resources and opportunities they need to develop essential writing skills. I would love to be able to give each of my students their own book so they can put their ideas down on paper. I love seeing students be creative through their writing. It is never too early to start. Thank you in advance for helping my students become future authors and have a love for writing.
