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

My students are eager learners. They are always wanting to look at something a little deeper to understand better. When we read about Balto they wanted to look at the route Balto traveled to deliver important medicine. When we studied about an Ice Hotel we took a tour of an actual Ice Hotel.

The listening center will allow my students to expand their knowledge of different texts.

They will be introduced to new vocabulary and subjects they have never experienced. Some have never been to the beach. Let's get started on learning about various subjects that will be an opening to new things.

Students will listen to a story being read fluently. Next, they will draw and write about their story. They will share their writing with fellow students.
