My Project

This project is for our student council club that meets after school

Making chocolate treats for different events in the school teaches real-life skills.

Our club helps spread cheer throughout the school year at different events. These skills can be powerful when done right. The kids will use the molds to create fun chocolate items that can be used at different events. These can be used over and over throughout the year, but the chocolate will only be used for a few. We will keep replenishing our chocolate when needed. The kids will learn how to make items, package them, and display them for events. The ice pops and cotton candy will be use in our school store called the Den. Kids can use their PBIS points to purchase these items from our school store. They earn these points by their positive schoolwide behavior. The pencils will be used in my own classroom for my math students. That helps them learn math skills and financial literacy.
