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

I am teaching 15 fantastic second language learners this year that are in 3rd grade and range in age from 8-10 years old in a high-poverty area in Boston.

My students come to school with a variety of skills and abilities that contribute to our class in a positive way.

LEGOs would help my students' learning and social-emotional needs throughout the day. This will be a truly hands-on experience for my students. Students will engineer, design challenges, and best of all, create inventions. Legos will create critical thinkers in and out of my classroom.
