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

Students are eager to learn; however, hunger can be a distraction throughout the school day. When children are hungry, it is difficult to focus and absorb the knowledge that is being spilled via the teacher, peer tutor, or technology.

My goal for this project is to restock the snack and food drawers inside my classroom to ensure that students have something to eat when hungry is a barrier to learning.

My students are extremely special because they have shown much educational growth throughout the school year, and they have become more mature with dealing with situations that once resulted in negativity. Not only are my students eager to succeed, but also students are eager for their classmates to succeed. This is shown through their consistent motivation and encouragement to each other throughout the school day.
