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

As I have moved through my first year of teaching there are so many things that help the room go from good to great. When the teacher is organized so are the students. Having more materials for hands on activities, such as makers, colored pencils, and whiteboards keep the students engaged and understanding the social studies content even further. I am hoping that these materials can give me a great baseline for the rest of my teaching career. Thank you for any and all help during this holiday season :)
