My Project

I have incorporated crafts into many of my lessons this year and my students have responded with such delight. I would like to continue but we have run out of some supplies.

I want them to continue to utilize their creative mind and our final project will be the center of our end of the year celebration.

The supplies will allow the fifth grade graduates to make festive covers for the memory books they have created. We can make Mother's day and Father's day gifts. Finally, I would like to them to make pinatas; one for each grade 2-5 and individual one for my k-1 students for our end of the year and graduation celebration. We have already begun planning and their excitement has been exciting!
