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

I am a Kindergarten teacher to 25 wonderful students. These students attend a Title I school in Central Pennsylvania where there is 100% free lunch. Having ownership of their own items is a rarity for most. Providing students with the opportunity to have manipulative in the classroom will provide them with additional hands-on activities that will enhance our curriculum.

My Project

The manipulatives that are being requested are to enhance our current Math and ELA manipulative. Our classroom has a very limited supply of manipulatives for my students to use. Many of the items we have either have been hand me downs or have been hand made. These tools will provide students with hands-on activities to encourage and grow math skills by using the magnetic ten frames. The coding mouse will also promote math and critical thinking skills while providing a fun activity for the students. The ABC cookie game will provide my students at every level an activity to practice their letter sounds, decoding skills, and reading in a fun way.
