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

I have been granted the esteemed opportunity to be the instructional leader to over 300 superstar scholars! My children are innovative, well rounded, and extremely curious. These social emotional materials will make a major difference in their social emotional learning experiences.

The virtual reality system will provide them with an escape from their everyday lives; they will also get the chance to release frustrations through popular virtual games rooted in physical activities.

The literature will allow me to enhance my teacher "toolbox", create student-centered social emotional lessons, and grant students opportunities to apply what the've learned. Lastly, the notebooks will serve as journals to log emotions, triumphs, doodles, and a wealth of other elements.
