Paint Our School Red!
Funded Sep 26, 2023Thank you so much for your donation to my classroom. So far, in my classroom, the paint has been used to create posters that cheer on our team and welcome other teams coming to visit our school. These posters where even more special because my students got to welcome a team they have never met before, because the village they came from has not had a sports team in over 10 years! For my students, teams coming to visit is a really big deal because it allows them to meet new people and see their friends from other villages.
The paint has also been used in other classrooms my students are in for other place based projects such as painting cabins they built out of popsicle sticks, art projects that they will submit to the state for an art competition, and other smaller projects. I am excited to see the projects that my students create in the future, including more posters for BASKETBALL season (our villages favorite season)!!
With the supplies purchased in this order, not only has it already brought excitement to my students it will continue to do so for many years. While posters on the outside seems like a useless thing that will be thrown away, for my students they represent school pride, it gives them something to do outside of the classroom (not much else to do in a small village with no roads); it means meeting new friends or a potential significant other, and they represent putting themselves out there to try something new.
So... thank you for contributing to my classroom and supporting my students. It means more than you will ever know!!”
With gratitude,
Ms. Conlan
