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 classroom is filled with young boys that want to have a bright future! Although they have some learning challenges they have learned to challenge themselves as students. They are talented in a wide variety of areas and work daily to improve their reading, writing, and math skills.

Some are artistic, some excel in math, and others have a propensity for writing.

Each they day they enter the classroom with a positive attitude ready to meet the challenges ahead.

These students are friendly active, and full of curiosity. They work hard as a group to encourage and support each other!

My Project

These materials will provide classroom resources for students to boost their reading skills. The nonfiction titles which teach student important concepts about the world around them.

My students can all use improvement in the area of reading.

Exposure to more reading material will help strengthen their skill and ability.

All of my students have a strong desire and motivation to gain knowledge and become more fluent readers. Access to classroom materials will help them to achieve these goals.

Every student deserves easy access to reading materials. Having resources in my classroom will benefit the students that I teach every day.
