My Project

I teach at a small middle school in a small school district. The district I teach in only has one elementary school, one middle school, and one high school. The majority of the students live in poverty and are homeless. What I mean by homeless is that the parent(s) and the children are living with other relatives, because they do not have a home of their own. The middle school I teach at is a Title I school, which means that we receive funds from the government to get some of the resources that we need. In addition, the students all receive free lunch and breakfast every day.

For Chirstmas this year, I want to gift each of my 8th grade students with their very own hat, scarf, and gloves set.

This would be the perfect gift for them to have as we move into the winter months of the school year. My students will have these sets handy for them while waiting for the school bus on cold mornings or walking home in the cold from the bus stop. The gloves are perfect for their social media fingers because they love to be on their devices. This project would really put a smile on my students' faces as they head home for the holidays in a few weeks.
