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

I'm asking for cool science kits and math tools like magnetic tiles, number tiles, and an Engineer coaster to make learning more fun for my students.

These hands-on kits and tools will bring science and math to life, letting students do experiments and play with numbers in a way that's easy to understand.

My goal is to create an exciting classroom where students can explore new things and love learning. What makes my students special is their curiosity and determination. They're always eager to learn and try new ideas. I love how they never give up and keep trying, no matter what. These kits and tools, like the magnetic tiles and coaster, will make learning even more enjoyable for them, helping them understand science and math while having fun. I believe they'll become even more excited about learning with these resources, and it'll help them do better in school and beyond.
