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

When I teach my kindergarten through second grade enrichment classes, I always start with a story! I believe that incorporating good children's literature helps to solidify the skills I am teaching them!

Gifted and talented teachers do not teach basic skills that are already taught in the classroom: our standards include creativity, flexibility, and stretching the imagination!

What better way is there to teach than using good children's literature? We can travel all 7 continents without ever leaving our classroom! Stories have always inspired my students and me to explore the world from our very own classroom.
