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 need a lot of love, care and support from teachers. Our school is in a poverty stricken area, where many students do not have necessary supplies or tools they need to succeed. Building a warm, safe, inviting classroom community and environment is so important for my students.
My students are kind, caring, and ready to learn.
They are continuing to learn how to best communicate with friends and prevent bullying in our classroom. Classroom community is still something we are continuing to build throughout the year, not just in our class, but school-wide. We also strive to provide differentiated, culturally-responsive instruction, and need more resources to do that.
I hope to receive support from DonorsChoose.org in order to help my students get necessary supplies, create a sense of community, safety and comfort in my classroom, as well as help my students create long lasting memories to help them connect positively to school. I appreciate your support in helping my students get what they need, learn, and grow.
My Project
Now that our classroom has a Cricut machine, I am asking for supplies to help supply and use the machine. I am requesting mats, a heat press and vinyl to be able to make classroom signs, posters and projects. We will also use the heat press to design and make our own shirts and clothing as a part of Project Based Learning initiatives. Students will be able to design different clothing items, explain why they designed them this way, and then make the clothing to both wear and give back to the community in need.
These supplies will truly help foster our creativity, imaginations, and also help give us a sense of pride in making items for the community.
