My Project

I love that many of our students want to learn and they are open to the different experiences that are being offered to them. The students in my school are special because they are always trying their best at whatever they do. This amphitheater will make a difference in the lives of my students because many of them have never experienced theater. I think that transforming their classroom into a theater it will allow them to have the authentic feel of being in a theater. This theater will also allow our students to participate in the arts which will be a new experience for my students.
