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

We have been working really hard to build our classroom word wall. I'm super proud that it's bilingual, and want to ensure that our hard work will last through this year and many more to come.

The laminator will provide an opportunity to preserve student work and allow students to showcase their creativity and critical thinking in a fun and unique way.

We need a laminator to ensure the longevity of classroom learning materials. We also can't get enough pencils and erasers.

I'm teaching history for the first time in several years and am constantly purchasing and generating new materials. I want to make sure that all of the materials go the distance and will serve us through the rest of this school year and beyond!

Ms. Russell
Grades 6-8
