My Students

Wouldn't it be wonderful if someone could report on happenings within the school; a first grade classroom reenacting the first Thanksgiving, a father reading to his son’s class?

Our students are creative, energetic and full of life.

They enjoy class meetings, reader's theater, lively discussions, class projects and working together in small groups. Often times they are so absorbed in their lessons that they forego their ancillary classes.

My Project

The flip videos will serve as a catalyst to share newsworthy and/or special events held within each individual room. It will also provide students with an opportunity to experience videotaping as well as get hands-on reporting and editing experience.

There are so many wonderful things that happen in our school on any given day.

With your help, students will have the opportunity to share these wonderful happenings with both their school community and their parents.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
