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

Learning and writing the ABCs is critical for future literacy acquisition. Students will love learning letters, practicing writing them with magic pens, gliding dry erase markers on the wipe-clean books, and being rewarded with positive reinforcement stickers.

With a classroom of pandemic babies, any extra help is needed for future academic success.

I would like to add these fun writing materials for my little scholars to engage in writing at school and at home and the bags so they can take them wherever they go! My students come to school ready to learn and this project would make acquiring pre-literacy skills more fun!
