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 have been teaching high school math for 11 years and one of the major factors for success is being organized and having the supplies in the classroom for students comfort. I have requested color paper for my classroom. I make all reference sheet and notes in color so that the students can easily find class material that they need to complete assignments. The students really like this! have also requested lots of pencils and folders. I believe in giving students the tools they need to be prepared for class. In math class students always need pencils so I am in need of lots pencils through out the school year. The folders are needed so that students can keep and organize their math papers.

I have also requested tissue.

Tissue is always needed for students with allergies and colds. It is always convenient to have this in class so that students don't have to walk all the way to the bathroom to get tissue.

I am also Math department head so I share all my supplies with the other math teachers in the building.

Thank you for donating to my class !
