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 Students

We are a Title I school in a highly transient area of a military town. My students are all second and third graders in a neighborhood that struggles economically. Nearly one hundred percent of our students qualify for free lunch and breakfast. That, however, does not diminish their enthusiasm for learning, especially when it relates to things they are passionate about!

Our students are smart and very capable students with a true love of learning through real experiences.

The economic challenges do, however, have an impact on what they have available to help them learn. These are changing times, and we have to constantly look for new ways to keep students engaged and build skills that will prepare them for potential careers.

My Project

As we wind down 2021, and look forward to a brighter 2022, nothing says fresh start like a library of fresh books! When our students return from winter break, I would love to welcome them back with new titles to spark their reading interest and book joy.

Our students delight at being the first to check out a new addition to our library collection.

Help me build excitement for reading by introducing new titles throughout the library. While many of these books cater to our emerging readers, this list has a little something for all of our library patrons.
