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

Pre-K students need lots of practice so having coils to bind reusable books in laminating sheets would help us have resources year after year that will help our students thrive! Any teacher knows that laminating resources is the best way sure they last.

When you have a resource that kids love, we want to make them last so we can use them over and over again year after year.

Having laminating sheets and binding coils would make sure that we could have reusable resources that we can have class after class use!
