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

Our school has been focusing on math and science growth this year in third grade. We have a new program that the kids are extremely excited about and have been working on. The program focuses on each student's needs and challenges.

These prizes will help motivate my students to finish their individualized lessons and show growth by the end of the year.

These prizes chosen are specific to what my students are interested in right now. Students love showcasing their art by creating friendship bracelets. Other students love the science activities we do in class and want to do more. Each student is excited about the idea of these big prizes to help them finish each of their lessons.

Grades 3-5
