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.

I teach First Grade at a charter school in a very low income area of New York. My students work hard and love reading!

We had a prehistoric listening center with one tape from my childhood, now it doesn't work any more and we are all heartbroken!

A new listening center with headphones and some audio books will help my students to build fluency, language skills, and a love of literacy that they will continue to benefit from long after the first grade.

By providing us with a new listening center, you can give my students some of the tools they need to excel in literacy and beyond!
