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
My classroom has 16 scholars who strive each and everyday to be their BEST self. Each and every scholar in my classroom possesses a special uniqueness that I know will leave a great mark on the world. Each scholar is challenged to be a leader and set the example for one another. In our classroom, scholars motivate, encourage and help one another. Even though our school suffers from chronic absenteeism, when these scholars show up to school - they show out! Greatness is here!
My Project
Reading is fundamental. Currently, our classroom library consists of four bookshelves full of books with only one bean bag. Often times, scholars have to read their books at their desks , sitting in very hard and very uncomfortable chairs. I believe that reading should be enjoyable- and what better way to enjoy reading by sitting in a comfortable bean bag! My scholars are also in need of pencils. A lot of the scholars in my class often find broken pencils with no eraser lying around and use them to write with. Please support our classroom and our scholars by donating these materials. We thank you in advance!
