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

This project consists of many important items for an art student. Third through fifth grade students create a portfolio that will stay with them all year. These supplies will help create their portfolios. They will use the pastels to "graffiti" their folders. This is a way for the students to create a central hub for all their designs.

The how-to books will help take the students from a state of "how-to" into a state of "I can".

These books will guide the students in a one-on-one setting on the moments when I cannot.
