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

The child-friendly paint canvases, markers, easels, colored pencils, construction paper, and crafting materials will assist these middle school scholars with completing their end-of-the-year projects for English Language Arts. Throughout the school year, the students have critically read, repeatedly discussed, and written about real and fictitious heroes, warriors, and survivors, and now as the year concludes, they get to craft greatness.

Showing what they know with artistic flare!

The students will design and create summary visuals, storyboards, survival guides, and more to show that they understood what they learned this year.
