Modeling Clay and Our French! (Part 2)
Funded Nov 30, 2021I truly appreciate your support with this project. My kiddos had a blast using the clay to create animal models for their final projects. It is always a highlight to see my students take their creativity to new heights and thanks to your financial contribution, I was able to do just that. Using clay, my students invented animals and presented those animals to the class in French. This project allowed them to develop their world language skills, as well as hone their artistic abilities. I look forward to completing future projects with them!”

Funded Aug 20, 2021Thanks to you, my students were able to participate in an arts-integrated project that combined their love for creativity with French vocabulary. My students utilized the modeling clay to create a character model for a school that they created based upon a central theme (i.e. Harry Potter, Halloween, musicals, food, etc.) Students then prepared labels and spoken presentations (en francais!) that described their schools and clay creations. I was blown away by the results and am so thrilled that we were able to have such an engaging classroom experience to wrap up our unit! Thanks so much for your support.”

Learning French Is Sew Fun
Funded Jul 27, 2021Thanks to you, my students were able to participate in an arts-integrated project that combined their love for creativity with French vocabulary. My students utilized the sewing materials to create a cross-stitch pattern that was reflective of their families and holiday traditions. Students then designed labels (en français!) that described their families and cross-stitch creations. I was blown away by the results and am so thrilled that we were able to have such an engaging classroom experience to wrap up our unit! Thanks so much for your support.”

Virtually Traveling "The Globe" Through Art (Part 2)
Funded Feb 22, 2021My students were thrilled to participate in our globe painting project thanks to your generous funds. Throughout our project week, students used their knowledge from our travel unit to paint and present a globe. Their presentations included French vocabulary on countries, animals, habitats, weather, and more. Your support of this project allowed my students to integrate their passion for the arts with our learning from French in a meaningful and memorable way.
When my students first saw the materials for our globe painting project they were ecstatic! I revealed the project right before spring break and several of my students commented that they wished they could skip spring break and get started already!
Currently, I have our globes on display for the rest of the school building to admire. It's been a treat seeing students from other grades who have marveled at the globes and look forward to potentially creating globes themselves one day. Thank you so much again!”
