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

Hello everyone , as a first year teacher I am eager to develop a well stocked classroom library for the third graders in my future class. I believe that bundling a diverse and engaging classroom library is such an essential aspect to fostering a love for reading in students.

As a first-year teacher, I want to build my classroom library to ensure my students invest in their learning and enjoyment.

From my student teaching experience, I’ve recognized that it is important to consider a mix of fiction and non-fiction books across various genres and reading levels so I am able cater to different interests and abilities.

By donating and contributing to this project will help enable students to have a dedicated classroom library tailored to their instructional levels, fostering independent reading and enhancing their learning experience. Students will have the opportunity to see books that represents themselves and a chance to learn and see other representations of people around our classroom and our world. Thank you for your thoughtfulness and donation!

I am creating an equitable classroom environment with a diverse range of books ensures that every student has access to resources that not only resonate with them but also reflect their unique experiences and backgrounds. This approach will foster inclusivity and empower students to engage with literature in meaningful ways.
