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

I try to keep things high energy in my classroom to keep students on their toes. Incorporating a microphone and galaxy lights into my classroom opens the door to endless creative possibilities! I want to set up and area in the classroom for students to practice public speaking. Sitting across from another student and practicing gives each student the opportunity of speaking and giving feedback.

The microphone and the galaxy lights could also make an awesome tool for celebrations!

My students love to perform. Having classroom karaoke would be a cool incentive that would motivate a lot of students.
