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

As we continue to prepare for the school year, I want to plan ahead and make sure my students and I have all the supplies we need.

These classroom materials, such as crayons and dry-erase markers, will help give students hands-on supplies to use in and outside the classroom.

My goal is to create a fun bright environment with colored paper, educational games, and things to make the environment pleasing. These basic supplies for the classroom will help me make supplies to use in the classroom and send home with the students to continue learning.

In my efforts to build motivation and create positivity, I have designed my classroom with a home-like atmosphere. This will ensure that students have everything they need to prepare for the next grade.
