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

As an educator I know first-hand how important it is to keep your students engaged and excited about learning. One way my team and I do this is by creating classroom transformations.

Our classrooms are transformed into a new theme or place!

The students love it, and it helps to keep students involved in the learning especially towards the end of the school year. This year my team and I would love to add a candy theme into our classroom theme rotations. Our rooms will become a candy store and students will participate in candy themed games and activities. We would love decorations, a large Candyland game, books, treats, and prizes. What a sweet surprise this will be!
