Help me give my students the opportunity to dive into Black History month with age-appropriate books and posters.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
I teach at a very diverse school. Many of my students are minorities. I believe that it is important for each student to be celebrated and appreciated. Earlier this year we celebrated Hispanic Heritage Month--we have continued to learn about important people in Hispanic Culture throughout the school year. My hope is that I can also provide this experience to my students for Black History Month.
I believe that our students' culture should not be celebrated only during one month, but the entire year.
The books and posters that I am hoping to provide for my students will stay available year-round. These materials will provide my students with more opportunities to see themselves reflected in my classroom.
Half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
