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

Here in Gary, Indiana we celebrate Black History every month. February brings Black History some extra attentions. Each child will get his/her own set of headphones to explore his/her favorite artist. The document camera will be used to help showcase their projects on the big screen.

In our second grade class, we would love a class set of headphones so each child can enjoy the famous African Americans who made music what it is today.

Diana Ross, Michael Jackson, Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, James Brown, and all the past favorites will be available for the kids to enjoy through their headphones. It will be awesome watching the seven-year-olds rocking to the sounds of the artist who were pioneers to the music industry.
