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

Being the only music teacher in the school, means I have multiple classes in grades Kindergarten through Fifth grade. Being organized is both important for the students as well as myself.

When teaching multiple classes, staying organized is critical.

You need to build routines and structures so you can keep students engaged and keep yourself motivated. Therefore, I am requesting different color folders to use for each of the different grade levels I will teach. This will allow my students to know exactly what folder they will be using, and will help me quickly transition to the next class in the two minute transition time I am given before the next class enters the room.
