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

Having a clipboard to hold the assignments in preschool would be extremely helpful. For some students, it is hard to hold the paper still while trying to manipulate a pencil or crayon. A clipboard would eliminate that frustration. For other students, it would be a way to keep their work together, and in good condition, rather than crunched into a backpack.

The students would love to have their own clipboard, just like their teacher.

It would help in developing organizational skills and may encourage our students to do their homework!
