My Project

This project meets both the wants and needs of my students to help my students succeed and supplement their learning. Personal hygiene supplies such as tissues, hand sanitizer, and lotion are all personal hygiene supplies my students need, and I have been unable to provide! Additionally, with our classes being over an hour long, my students can benefit from having a mental break and activities that can help them focus and reset. Finally, students, at times, are unable to hear videos I play or request to listen to music as they work, a speaker will help meet that student want and allow them to engage with classroom videos and activities more.

Ms. Mahmud Paul L Dunbar High School 414 Grades 9-12

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.
