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 Project

Our Kindergarten class is bursting with energy!! My students are learning beyond grade level and I am so proud!! These items requested will help my students level up and become the shining stars they are meant to be! The listening center is an awesome opportunity to advance students in a small group setting! They are excited to learn new things every day, and this is another way to engage active listening! In addition to this, my students are such active readers that the bean bags would make them so much more comfortable in the Reading Center. Thank you so much for your generosity and kindness!
