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 students walk into our classroom every day full of life, ready to learn, and excited for what is in store for them. We are implementing the "Leader In Me" academy where they learn to take ownership of their life's journey.
My precious campus has over 200 highly motivated children in grades Pre K-4.
97% of our students are on the free lunch program. They come from various backgrounds, races, religions, and social-economic classes. Our sweetheartss are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite the many challenges they face, I am looking to keep things simple and provide my students with creative and meaningful learning experiences to ensure that every minute of the day engages students. This is why I am so excited to help them engage in this new program.
My Project
Children need to be taught organizational skills and these supplies will greatly help with that. In our "Leader In Me" academy each child will keep their own binder in which they can keep charts, growth patterns, notes and a blueprint for this year's expectations.
These personal binders will be a new resource for them - and hopefully this skill be used throughout their lifetime.
When children set their own growth plans they take ownership in them, their success is so much sweeter!!
They will have a section for a personal goal - one they picked for them self. Then on a weekly each child & a partner will discuss the goal - both the ups and downs. They will also have a section to celebrate their each and every accomplishment.
