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

My goal for this project is to provide my students with enriching, hands-on experiences and materials that keep their minds engaged during the summer break, fostering a love for learning that lasts a lifetime.

These resources will empower them to explore, create, and enjoy the wonders of the world around them.

Sidewalk chalk encourages artistic expression while developing fine motor skills and spelling practice. Bubbles inspire outdoor play and exploration of scientific concepts like surface tension. Play-Doh encourages fine motor skills, and the chair pockets will help keep things organized. These resources will be so beneficial for my students to continue to explore outside our classroom!
