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 3rd grade students are a group of excited, and ambitious scholars in a Title I school. Each one of my scholars is walking a journey of learning, and sometimes it is difficult for them to walk this journey. My scholars love to learn new skills that they see fit that will open their horizons to possibilities for their future. Curiosity and motivation are not there-- yet. I am hoping with resources and exciting manipulatives from DonorsChoose, my scholars will take testing more seriously.

My Project

I am requesting Grab & Play Social Studies Games that will provide hands-on social studies resources for centers and small group learning. The way the scholars are exposed to Social Studies is by reading passages or listening to a song or seeing a video on the topic. So much emphasis is put on Reading, Writing, and Math that the "fun" parts of Social Studies (and Science) are left to mostly nothing. As my students play the fun skill-building games, they explore everything from U.S. history and geography to land forms and symbols on a map! I would love to receive these resources to make social studies more memorable and exciting. These social studies centers and resources will help my students to learn the ways of the world, and the history of it! My students are inquisitive, compassionate, and creative. With the proper materials, I believe each child can come to love learning all about social studies!
