My Project

My students are natural creators and love to use their imagination to make masterpieces. I teach at a low income school and many of my students have to share items with a sibling and may not have something that's just for them. I want to create personalize items with them. Students will be able to design their own graduation shirts, field trips, and Mother's Day and Father's Day trinkets. This way they will have a sense of pride and ownership. I will like my students to learn to work together to help enhance their creativity.
