My Project
The fifth grade class of 2025 is curious, creative, and enthusiastic. Each day, they come to class with a desire to learn, grow, and make memories that will last a lifetime. They're not just eager to absorb knowledge but also to connect with each other, their community, and their school.
The resources for this project will give my students the opportunity to not only celebrate their academic journey but also express themselves creatively.
By making graduation friendship bracelets with their names, school colors, and a dragon charm that represents our mascot, they’ll have a tangible reminder of their time together. It will be a keepsake that holds memories of their friendships, growth, and the special moments they've shared.
This project will also encourage teamwork, fine motor skills, and creativity as they design and craft their bracelets. It’s a fun, hands-on way to reinforce the importance of self-expression while helping them feel proud of their accomplishments. These bracelets will become more than just accessories; they will serve as symbols of their hard work, achievements, and the lasting bond they share as a class.
