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

Teachers Pay Teachers (TpT) is a teacher website store that provides high-quality materials created by teachers for teachers. TpT activities will allow me to plan lessons for my students while they are in the classroom and at home learning. The colorful engaging lessons will help motivate students to enhance their academic skills. I am requesting TpT resources to support my instruction. Sometimes the curriculum lessons can be too technical and TPT resources help to break down and chunk the learning. TpT has become a necessity for today's teacher. The bright colorful paper will be used to print students' writing on. It will be away to highlight and display students' hardwork.

I love using TpT materials to supplement what we do in the classroom.

By using TpT materials, I can have students practice and strengthen the skills needed to be successful in reading and writing. Lastly, the Daily 6-Trait Writing resources gives students scaffolded, focused writing practice. Each of the 25 weekly units provides trait-based writing practice in concise activities that cover the essential traits of strong writing: ideas, organization, word choice, sentence fluency, voice, and conventions. My students love expressing themselves. Please help me to teach them how to communicate effectively through writing.
