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 Students

My classroom is full or 3 and 4 year old Head Start students who love to learn! All of my students live in poverty and many are in a single parent household.

We are working on math skills and my students are in need of some manipulatives to help with counting, number, and shape recognition.

These are important skills that serve as a foundation for my future mathematicians! They work hard to ensure that they are as well prepared for kindergarten as some of their more advantaged peers.

My Project

With new math materials, my students will be able to work on counting skills in both small groups and individually. They will increase their fine motor skills as they place objects in groups and work with shapes.

Increasing their math skills will help them be prepared to enter kindergarten on a level playing field with their more advantaged peers.

At our Head Start center, we use a supplemental math curriculum called High Five Mathematics. Through this, we are able to support math through STEAM and we can address individual child goals. This helps to ensure that they are all well prepared for their future educations.
