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

I have 21 energetic kindergarten students who are eager to learn. The students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. Most of the students lack the support and resources at home to become successful learners.

Despite the many challenges they face, I am looking for new and different ways to get the students excited and motivated about learning.

My wish is to provide my students with creative and meaningful learning experiences that will keep them motivated to learn.

My Project

We are heading back to school and we'd like some items that will help keep the germs away. The touchless trash can will be great to keep the germs contained when we have to toss our Kleenex tissues and gloves that we have used. The gloves will come in handy when we clean our learning areas, so that we can stay germ free. The counters for math will help make individual bags for counting objects when we are working in Math. Unfortunately, we are so used to sharing materials but this year will be a little different. All of the materials, will be used to keep our classroom as safe as possible as we continue to learn.
