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

I have an amazing group of junior students. They are a part of the ARCHES program. In ARCHES, students have low cognitive disabilities who work towards transitioning to jobs in the community. We are currently learning how to count and spend money. This is a major challenge for my students.

To encourage my students to learn to count money, I want to create a snack stand in the classroom.

Teaching the students how to use a cash register gives them skills they can use to get a job in the community.

My students enjoy getting snacks. This is the best way to help them learn to count money. The students will love working and then being rewarded with a snack when they are done.
