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

It's no secret that middle schoolers love to make things with their hands. What better way to update the everchanging library with makerspaces? Makerspaces help students gain the skills that they need to be more collaborative learners and to solve problems.

These supplies make it more inclusive for students that like to make things with their hands while keeping the library as a center for literacy.

Students who are able to tinker with things are more engaged in their learning. I have seen how creating things can help with student success in my own classroom, and I hope to provide this on a large scale in my new role as a school librarian.

Grades 6-8
