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

There are other grade levels in the school that have a student of the month chair that gets decorating, and that student sat in that chair for the whole month. I would like to create the same but have it for student of the week. So, more students will give the opportunity to enjoy the rock star chair. The Apple iPad will be used for the rock student to use during computer time (RTI time) or other device time for that week. The colorful pens will be for the students to use during their rock week.
