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 regularly deal with trauma in many forms: poverty, homelessness, hunger, abuse, imprisonment of family members, etc. Their young minds often find it difficult to concentrate on their studies for any length of time.

All of my students qualify for free or reduced-price lunches.

Often, school meals are the only food they eat in a day. Concentration and putting forth the energy needed for learning is difficult, although they are curious. My students crave new experiences and information.

My students like to experiment with different types of technology and media. They work hard and are eager to learn. I love watching them make connections in our ELA center activities.

My Project

We have outgrown our student supply shelf. It’s a small, three-shelf piece that came from my basement. Quite frankly, it is falling apart.

My first-graders need many more supplies than I can keep on our current shelves.

So, I have the box of extra pencils and the box of erasers on the shelf. We keep hand sanitizer, facial tissues, paper towels, and sanitizing wipes on the shelves, too.

The rest we have to keep in our coatroom. Things like scissors, glue sticks, notebooks, paper, markers, and paints. Having all of our basic supplies in one easy-access area will help our class run so much more smoothly.
