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 little learners have blossomed this year! Through their hard work and determination, many of them are reading above grade level texts! Unfortunately, they do not have a classroom library that is challenging enough for them.
My incredibly brave little learners face tremendous challenges each day, most before even entering the building in the morning.
Our school is a Title 1, high-poverty elementary school with more than 90% of students on the free or reduced lunch program.
My Project
Despite the daily challenges that my students face, many of them have worked tirelessly to be able to read above level text. The materials in this project will provide my little learners with an appropriate classroom library that will continue to inspire growth.
I am beyond proud of my little learners this year!
They have made tremendous gains. It would be incredibly unfortunate to see their progress slow because of a lack of materials. Please help my students continue to strive for success!
