Baby, It's Cold Outside!

Help me give my students rain/snow suits so they can be warm and dry during the cold winter months.

My Project

The climate in my schools area goes from 90 degrees and sunny to -10 degrees and icy. All of the children in my classroom come from at risk and low income families. Providing warm clothes to wear to school is a struggle for many families in my classroom. Often time children come to school without jackets, or jackets that do not fit and are not appropriate for the winter weather.

Being able to provide clean, warm, and dry winter rain jackets for my students will make a world of difference in their life whether they are walking to school or playing on the playground.

Going outside to play in all types of weather builds large muscles, strengthens children's resiliency, and provides an opportunity for children to practice important skills. Many families in my classroom do not have cars and must walk to school in all types of weather. Providing warm and dry outside clothing items without judgement will foster trust and cooperation between myself and the students of my parents, contributing to a successful school year for all children.
