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 kindergarten students have lots of wiggles! I would love to have chair bands that the students can kick so that they can get some of their wiggles out! I would also love to have some self-inking stamps to motivate the students and encourage their good work. Lastly, having magnetic sentence strips and storage bins would help us to organize things on the white board up front.

Having the supplies that we need will help us to stay organized, happy, and learning in the classroom!

We are looking forward to a successful end of the school year.
