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 Students
What makes our students unique in this Pre-Kindergarten classroom, is that they come to us with a blank slate, and we fill their boards with academic knowledge. By the time they leave our classroom, they are writing on their own slates. We are a Title I facility nestled in an urban community that serves the children in the neighborhood. Considering that we are a Cleveland public school, our neighborhood has more crime and homicide than the city’s statistics. With these odds, our scholars are still on time and ready to learn.
My Project
Occasionally, my school has a fun "Pajama Day" for students to wear their comfiest outfits and snuggle down for a reward afternoon with popcorn and a movie. Unfortunately, there always seems to one or two children who do not have a set of pajamas to wear that day. I hate to see anyone excluded, but it is almost impossible to have sets in all sizes on hand at all times.
I would like to give each of my students a set of matching pajamas, so that we might have a special "Family Day" in my classroom, and one that they can take home and keep for home.
This way, I am sure that everyone will have toasty, warm pajamas for our fun day and for personal use.
I will take care of our fun activities, the snacks, and the matching socks, could you please help me put smiles on my student's faces by helping me with our special pajamas?
