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

The classroom has not changed much over the years starting with the typical desk or tables and chairs. In a world that is constantly changing, the classroom should be no different.

The classroom should be somewhere students want to be.

It should really feel like a home away from home. Having bean bags gives the classroom a different feel and a lot more comfort. It allows students to sit in positions that are conducive to the way they learn. It breaks up the classroom so students have a little bit more independent learning time away from their peers.
