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

Students need to be able to see what they are expected to achieve. If we want to write legible and remember certain concepts, they need to see examples throughout the classroom. Chart paper and markers will be used so that the teacher and students can create anchor charts together.

Charts and posters allow student to have visual access to writing and concept models.

Charts are for students, and the ultimate goal is that the students will use them independently. They serve as reminders of lessons taught, a list of skills to practice, and a guide for next steps.
