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

My Preschoolers are very curious and playful. They’re always ready to explore something new and love hands-on materials in the classroom. As a teacher we always focus on helping them to learn share and play or in other words building healthy social emotional skills. I’m requesting several different types of pretend play toys in my classroom as young children learn things while playing. The best pretend play and learning happens in dramatic center where they express their imagination as they play with their peers. My students also need art supplies to expand their creativity as part of their pre academic learning skills. We also need file, folders and different kind of papers to preserve their art works and present to their parents during conference and display as how their child are progressing .

Ms. Marcia will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by July 6.
