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

Our classroom is seeking some more decorations to finish our final look. We are in need of many sharpened pencils to help us write longer and stronger sentences. Everyday the students are working on their handwriting and math skills. Our class is also in need of some more decor. We have requested a laminating machine to keep the papers sturdy and laminating paper sheets. We have also requested some pillow inserts. In our previous project, we received pillow covers and we are ready to make our library and room cozy. Help us finish this room and year off strong!
