Celebrating Black History Month

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

My students are eager to learn about different cultures this year in World History. My students need basic school supplies to have a successful school year. Each child requires an individual school supply kit of pencils, glue, and erasers. As such, I need to replenish their school supplies.

Supplies such as the class printer will be a welcome relief for myself since I have to provide colored printed materials from my own pockets.

Others such as pens, and pencils are helpful for families who are unable to purchase school supplies for their children. In addition, the supplies in this project will provide my students with the necessary materials for the day-to-day activities and work that will take place in our classroom. They will have the tools for success!
