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

These items will be used by the students daily. We go through so many pencils, a pencil will last about a week in the classroom. We also use the earbuds daily when working on the computer and the bigger headphones for testing days. These are staple items that are needed to make the classroom function in the most effective way possible.

The goals for this project is to make sure that my students have the things that they need to be successful.

There are many students in my class that can not afford these necessities. The school provides some things but not all that we need for every student. My students are so special to me. Most of them are eager to learn and grow and it helps when we have the appropriate tools to make that happen.
