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

My students have worked very hard this year to prepare for third grade. The end of the year allows us time to continue learning but with a flare!

I would like to wrap up the year by providing my students with some engaging learning experiences which includes a glow day.

My students will be allowed to partake in a fun filled party that will keep them engaged. During a transformation activity this engaging, 100% of your students are going to be well behaved because it is different and new! The glow bracelets, the black light, the treat bags, the gold fish, the decorations, the neon lights will all be an added bonus to make the day extra special!
