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 Students

As a teacher in a low-income/high poverty school district, my students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite the many challenges they face, they always come to school ready and willing to learn. I am looking to provide my students with creative and meaningful learning experiences.

My students are creative, brilliant, and eager to learn.

They like to draw, they love to read, they love to write stories and they thrive on lots of positive attention. Many of them are being raised in single parent households and receive a free lunch based on their socioeconomic status. Despite the odds stacked against them, my students show persistence in their daily challenges and long to show others how capable and smart they truly are.

My Project

It's fast approaching the beginning of a new school year and my students need new journals to help get them off to a great year. The writing journals will help my students to master writing and forming letters. They will build on this to writing sentences and understanding sentence structure and then progress to writing short stories. The interactive phonics journals will help my students with word families, blends & digraphs, and final e words. My students will use the daily language practice journals to help boost their skills in phonics, vocabulary, reading, writing and letter formation. By mastering these essential early literacy skills, will help my students to become better readers and writers.
