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

These materials (games, markers, puzzles, manipulatives) will be used to provide students with meaningful hands-on learning experiences, rather than traditional classroom instruction. They will support engaging and interactive and fun learning opportunities for students.

These materials will help to build the foundational learning skills that will promote school readiness in the areas of math and literacy, which is the gateway to providing learning experiences in reference to other academic subjects.

The skills will help students to become life-long learners in a functional but less structured learning environment. And, provide the opportunity for success and support for all students in respect to diverse learners.

Ms. Brown
Grades PreK-2
