My Project

Please help me give my students a classroom well-equipped for learning. My students are all African American scholars interested in audio and visual communication. My students are creative, innovative, and rambunctious! They are thriving to be well-rounded individuals in the communities in which they live. They deserve to have a classroom that has essential resources to help them to succeed academically. Primary materials like crayons and markers are vital to our learning environment. We use these materials daily. Having a printer is also critical for our classroom environment, as we need printouts that help increase comprehension of our lessons. The throw pillows will comfort our library area and create a warm, inviting place that our scholars enjoy. The fraction flip chart will enhance our math center, creating a more well-developed space that will increase mathematical skills. I have also included a few decorative items for classroom wall decor. My classroom needs your support!
