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

Often times my students come into my classroom overwhelmed from their time in general education. These items will help them regulate their bodies and be ready to focus on learning.

These items will help me teach my students how to regulate themselves when they are feeling overwhelmed.

Your donation will go towards students who need some support with regulation and anxiety, as well as teaching them self regulate. It will also go towards a new bookshelf for my classroom, because my students have really fallen in love with reading and other games and things that need to be stored.

Ms. Hughes
Grades 6-8
