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

Headphones are needed to replace my old headphones before ACAP testing. We need adequate functioning tools to help us with standardized testing. My students are careful, but in the middle things happen such as dropping headphones or the headphones, not working.

The paper, pencils, and pencil dispenser are for the activities before and after testing.

They are supplies needed often in the classroom. The students will benefit from using the headphones daily. Students need to be engaged in all activities. These supplies will help curate great hands-on activities, and they will be able to engage in online learning without any disturbance.
