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

Hello Donors,

The materials that I listed would help me and the children in my classroom next school year.

I included folders, because the children take home important information to their parents on a daily basis. The folders really help me as an educator keep things organized. I chose student of the week certificates and pencils, because the children work really hard doing Homeschool connections with their parents, I feel like this also gets that child going home and asking mom or dad to do the homework assignment with them. The children knowing that they may receive that student of the week certificate or being able to pick out of the treasure chest really is a big deal to the children. The excitement on their faces. Please help fund my project!
