My Project

My Project

There are so many ways to celebrate birthdays in the classroom.

I would love to give my students the perfect combo of celebration and gift giving! My students come from low income households, so celebrating their birthdays in the classroom is very important to me.

We become a classroom family on the first day of school!

I want to make sure that each and every one of my students feels extra special on their day. The seat cover will stay on their chair for the entire day and when they walk into their classroom, they will be greeted with a special surprise...
