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

These resources will help students thrive. I am seeking funding to provide necessary resources for my classroom in order to enhance the learning experience for my students. I am a new teacher and I am seeking a rug for my classroom to create a space for morning meetings and lessons, as well as a bin to help students keep their personal items organized. These resources will not only create a comfortable and inviting atmosphere for learning, but also teach foundational skills such as organization and responsibility. Your support is greatly appreciated in helping me provide the best learning environment for my students. The items I am requesting, such as flexible seating in my classroom, which will allow students the freedom to choose a workspace that best suits their learning needs. Additionally, I am seeking whiteboards and dry erase markers to enhance student engagement and practice in math and writing skills. These resources will provide students with the opportunity to actively engage in their learning process and improve their academic performance. Your contribution towards these items is greatly appreciated in creating a dynamic and interactive learning environment for my students. With these resources, my goal is to create a dynamic and inclusive learning environment that fosters creativity, critical thinking, and collaboration among my students. What makes my students truly special is their diverse backgrounds, unique perspectives, and unwavering enthusiasm for learning. By investing in these resources, we can empower them to reach their full potential and thrive academically.
