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 school is a large Title I school where eighty percent of the students live below the poverty line. My students are academically and economically diverse. Many of them face situations that no child should ever face, like being temporarily homeless. Yet, they are also hardworking, enthusiastic young people full of potential and possibilities. They have lots of life and energy.

They love to learn, especially in new and exciting ways, and they recognize that they are part of a larger, generous community.

Please consider helping me to make this their best year ever!

My Project

I have plenty of flexible seating in my classroom and my students enjoy them all. One of their favorites is a round floor table that four of them can sit at. They enjoy stretching out and not having to sit at a traditional desk or in a hard chair. They like it so much that they have to take turns sitting at it so that no one's feelings get hurt. With that in mind, I am seeking a rectangular table that also sits low to the ground. I believe they will enjoy this one as much as they do the other one. This one will be used for our small group math lessons as well as STEM activities. With this table, my students and I will be able to collaborate during math and science easier.
