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

I have the pleasure and privilege of teaching four-year-olds. For many, this is their first time in school! While this year will not be traditional, as their teacher, I not only have to provide them with the materials to learn but also create an environment virtual and in person, that instills a positive attitude towards education.

Many of my kiddos come from low-income homes although all full of love!

The parents cannot donate much and the school budget just will not cover all that we need to make our environments as exploratory as such young children deserve. One of the effects, COVID is having, is there just isn't any money to purchase items. Please consider helping us!

My Project

Introduction to STEM at a young age is extremely important! Young children learn best through exploration and materials that engage them in science and critical thinking is greatly needed in our classroom. These magnetic tiles and science kits will indeed help promote my students' critical thinking and problem-solving skills.

STEM activities promote the development of math and science skills but also give my students the opportunity to strengthen their language skills.

Also, engaging in these hands-on activities will keep my students curious, focused, communicative, and active building stamina across the various disciplines.
