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

The items listed in my donors choose are beneficial to my students learning environment. The books on SEL and Community helpers will my students learn more about how to regulate their emotions and how a variety of people help within the community to make it better. The goal for this project is make my classroom a better environment for my students and myself . Working in at school in a lower income area, the parents may not have access to school supplies and being able to supply my students with what they will need for the school year will make me proud.

What makes my students special is how eager they are to learn and how appreciative they are to receive the supplies they need.

All of the items in the cart are to help the students have a fun and inviting learning environment by providing them some board games, comfortable seating, books, crayons, and markers. They’re always ready to explore something new and love hands-on materials in the classroom. This year, we need more books for our library corner, especially hardcover books that will last longer than paperbacks. I’m requesting several different picture books and chapter books for the variety of reading levels in my classroom. By sponsoring my project, it would really help my students and myself.
