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

Kindergarten is a special year for young students. A first impression is a must! My kindergarten classroom consists of both special education students and general education students. In my classroom I encourage curious minds. Having an environment to help support this is extremely important. Classrooms should be exciting.

Different types sensory play and hands-on learning can help brighten a dull classroom!

Students should look forward to coming to school and having a classroom that they can really enjoy. Sensory tables with sand and water can allow students to explore learning through their hands at their own pace. This project has the potential to give my students more opportunities to enjoy learning.
