Brining important Black History Leaders to life in your classroom during Black History Month and beyond is essential to developing a classroom community. By introducing your students to important black history leaders you'll help them see themselves in the classroom. As Desiree says, you'll help them see what is possible... even in the difficult times! 

In this episode we will honestly chat about:

• What Black History Month can mean to your students 
• How to plan a memorable event- like a skit 
• The first step to take to develop ideas about a Black History Month event 

Building a classroom community is essential to helping ALL your students feel a sense of belonging. Learn more ways to develop your classroom community at monamath.com/community monamath.com/ebook monamath.com/discussion to grab your free guide.
