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

We need copies of the nominated Black Eyed Susan Books to put on the shelves in the library so that students have them available to check out during the Battle of the Books.

Wouldn't it be fun to let our little students participate in a Battle of the Books?

We can do this by putting these books in the library and giving students an opportunity to participate in a fun and engaging activity that sponsors reading for enjoyment.

Please put these amazing books on the shelves so they are available for my amazing students! Thank you for your help!
