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 Students

My students are my life! For me, making their lives better and more enriched is my passion! We live in the urban city of Charlotte, and I have students of every kind. The diversity is amazing. We have students of all races, religions, and socioeconomic statuses.

My students are scholars!

Often, I get visitors observing my class, and they see a variety of things happening such as me standing on desks, singing, dancing, experiments, stations, collaborative group work, or students teaching other students. My students have a thirst for knowledge, and they always strive to fly higher than the rest! We are Ravens!

My Project

I am in need of the basics to kick off the school year right. This DonorsChoose.org project has pencils, highlighters, expo markers, pencil sharpener, and plastic page protectors. It also includes non-edible prizes. So often children are always given candy as prizes and I would like to have alternatives. I think the kids will love the fun erasers!

At the start of the school year, one way I like to establish a positive culture is to utilize a teamwork STEM activity.

The students will work in lab groups to build a book support. They will perform multiple builds together to learn from their mistakes and improve.
