A Terrific Time Teaching Tiny Tigers!

Help me give my students a tigeriffic learning experience: Our mascot is the tiger!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Sweeney's classroom raised $210

My Students

School is the best place to be! My group of students are spectacular as they enjoy their life! Learning is an essential part of their life, and they know it! They are in a Title I community, but their drive to learn says otherwise.

I would give my last breath for these kiddos, and sometimes I feel like I do!

They keep me on my toes with their quick wits and innovative ideas! The students are exciting and eager to learn. We strive for success in these classrooms!

My Project

Our Mascot is the mighty Tiger! The children love to remind me of the tiger, and it made me think, why don't I provide them tiger themed incentives while they learn. I think they would love to see the paw prints behind me while I virtually teach. I am hoping to have a tiger themed party upon return to school.

The children will receive tiger themed pencils and stickers and erasers to keep the tiger theme exciting for them.

They have a roaring good time in class. I thank you for supporting us.
