My Project

Many students come to my classroom knowing how to take proper care of their things or others. However, when presented to them, many love to have classroom jobs but we do not have some of the supplies that they need to do it.

I think teaching students to be responsible, organized, and to take pride in their surroundings is an important lifelong skill that builds character.

With these supplies, students will be able to help the custodians keep the room vacuumed, dusted and organized and in return teach them to have pride in their job. By doing these small acts, I see my students growing as a person.
