A Warm Head Goes a Long Way

Help me give my students some tender loving care and warmth for the winter!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Yip's classroom raised $206

My Students

My students are diverse. They come from many different backgrounds. This neighborhood has many new immigrants. Our students vary from regular education kids to mainstream kids as well as 12:1 kids.

Our school's motto is "Committed to Excellence." We strive to give our students the best resources we can.

Many of them need hands-on materials and manipulatives so that they can "see" what is happening. Most days we break up into small groups to do mini-lessons to review or strengthen concepts.

Our goal is to try our best to help the kids meet their goals!

My Project

Winter is cold! Many of the students in my class might not have a simple accessory like a warm hat to use on their way to school and on their way home! They end up getting sick so they miss school and they miss out on learning. It's important to teach children how to take good care of themselves and why it's important to be in school every day.

Our classroom theme this year is Superheroes because every student is a superhero in their very own way.

With this project, students will have the opportunity to design and create their very own "super" hat!
