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

As an educator committed to providing the best possible educational experience for my students, I am seeking donations for essential materials that will greatly benefit their learning journey.

Our classroom is in need of dry erase materials, including markers, erasers, and boards, to facilitate interactive learning experiences.

With these tools, students can actively participate in discussions, solve problems collaboratively, and express their creativity.

In addition to dry erase materials, I am also aiming to introduce flexible seating options to accommodate diverse learning preferences and promote student engagement. Flexible seating allows students to choose seating arrangements that best suit their needs, whether it’s sitting on stability balls, using standing desks, or utilizing floor cushions. By offering flexible seating, we can create a more dynamic and comfortable learning environment that fosters focus and productivity.

Furthermore, I am requesting donations for headphones to support individualized learning activities and minimize distractions. With headphones, students can access educational videos, audio resources, and online learning platforms without disturbing their peers, enabling them to immerse themselves fully in their learning experiences.

Your generous contribution will make a significant difference in the lives of my students, empowering them to thrive academically and reach their full potential. Any assistance will be immensely appreciated and will directly impact the quality of education my students receive. Thank you for considering my request.

Warm regards,

Mrs. Latisha Forbes
