My Project

Black History Month is around the corner and what better way to teach students about the historical prominent figures that paved the way for all people today. I would like to give my students a memorable, yet teachable celebration! Black History Month is an important time in education to teach and elevate the minds of those who are unaware of black peoples historical struggles and accomplishments. From writers like James Baldwin and artists like Aaron Douglas it is important that black history is taught especially in education. I hope that you will help me provide my students with a celebration of inspiration, determination and historical rememberance.
