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 come from a low income population with all different special needs. Mostly my students are on the autism spectrum. Each student has different wants and needs. They struggle with communication and socialization skills.
My students have strong and vibrant personalities and even though they may have special needs they want to be like their friends.
Each one of their personalities can brighten your day. They do not let their needs and wants get in the way of their smiles.
My Project
We are a school in the need of books for our classroom. Each year I teach different grades and each year the students surprise me with their increasing reading levels.
The students have a passion for reading.
I want to give them the opportunity to increase their reading level. I have some reading leveled books but it would be amazing to have an actually leveled cart where there are many different levels of reading books. We will be able to push the children when we have harder reading levels.
I look forward to challenging my students now and in the future.
