My Project
I teach a course called General Employability Skills and my goal is to have students gain experience by participating in service learning projects. My students are traditionally from lower socioeconomic backgrounds and often times experience hardships that make it difficult to participate in community service activities outside of school.
Help empower my students' skills in the classroom while also supporting the military and survivors!
The resources chosen center around completing service projects for the military (Operation Gratitude) and survivors (Operation Ornaments). This will allow my students gain the community service hours that they are lacking due to hardships. Gaining community service hours can also contribute to their personal and professional growth (soft skills) and learning how to be a compassionate individual.
The pillowcases and slap bracelets will be used to decorate and make bracelets for service members care packages. The paint markers, pipe cleaners, and diamond ornaments will be used to create handmade ornaments for survivors of natural disasters. The other items will contribute to additional community service activities that we participate in throughout the school year.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
