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 Students

My students are passionate about learning! They love to come to school and they love to learn new things. Some of my students come from single-parent​ homes, high poverty environments, or homes that speak two or three languages. Some of my students come to me with high behavioral and attention needs.

Since some of my students don't have the best home environment, I try to make our classroom a safe and loving place to learn.

When we enter our classroom we are a family who tries our best to take care of one another by showing each other love, pushing each other to do better, and catching each other when we fall.

My Project

My students love to learn and love to work together. They are critical thinkers who still need to write and get their thinking on paper. The problem is, we use too much paper! As a teacher we make a lot of copies to help our students learn. Although there are times when using paper is unavoidable, we can decrease the usage of paper in the classroom by using dry erase tables.

By using dry erase tables we will use less paper, learn to work with others, and show our critical thinking in a creative and fun way!

With dry erase tables students will be able to practice math facts, answer questions during group learning, review vocabulary with partners, and show their thinking! All of this work can be done on tables. Dry erase tables would also allow us to use a lot less paper. Students need the opportunity to show their work but after their done, the paper ends up in the recycling bin, or worse, in the trash. Dry erase tables won't get rid of our paper usage completely, but they will help reduce the amount of paper we use.
