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 incredible little scholars who work extremely hard. Due to Covid, they started the school year off several grade levels behind. Entering the world of middle school was already a challenging task. Assessments, homework assignments, projects, etc... can become quite exhausting. When you work as hard as these students have and feel like you will never catch up, staying the course can feel counterproductive. These students have worked so hard to get caught up. Sometimes they need a little encouragement. Gift cards, fidgets, and arts & crafts wield rejuvenating powers! Learning can be lit!
