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

Our school is Title I and has a significant number of students from low-income households. I know every teacher probably feels this way, but I think I have the best kids in the world. They are sweet, kind, and oh-so-curious. They make it easy to get up and go to work in the morning!

My students are wiggle masters... no matter the time of day, they like to be moving in one way or another.

The only time of day they're willing to sit in one spot for more than 10 seconds at a time is during read aloud, where they absolutely love listening to stories.

My students are particularly interested in video games and technology, and they're often as proficient (or even more so!) than I am. They also have a passion for science, especially learning about animals.

My Project

Classroom libraries are, inevitably, one of the most disorganized spaces in a classroom. Even the most organized teachers -- ones like me who spent THREE DAYS this summer sorting and organizing classroom library books -- easily lose track of books as the year goes on.

Classroom library storage bins help keep titles clear, genres organized, and all books accessible to all students.

It also helps one very busy teacher maintain her sanity for the remainder of the school year! We have been donated many amazing books from Donors Choose in the past... now we just need somewhere to store them all!
