My Project

We are lucky enough to have the opportunity to lead a 5th grade electives program that allows our students to explore new subjects outside of our typical curriculum. We offer a variety of activities for our students, led by classroom and cluster teachers!

Our clubs program allows students to explore and learn how to play different board games, create and solve STEM challenges, become author's of comic books, and show their artistic sides off!

Our 5th grade teachers created a clubs program years ago to provide a special time for our students to experience different electives that they may have never been introduced to. The board games we are requesting will allow our students to learn new games they’ve never played, work on their teamwork, and enhance their communication skills. The art supplies, notebooks, and TPT gift card will allow our teachers to create a new comic club where children will use creative writing and illustration to become authors of comics. In addition, we requested some educational games to help our students progress academically. Our hope is that our students will find new hobbies, make new friends, and learn new skills for their future.
