My Project
A popular new trend with students in competitive dance and volleyball is to make fun clothespins and secretly get them to stick to people in public. The "clipee" finds the clip later and wonders where it came from, but they are also uplifted by the message on the clip.
My homeroom likes to do fun and kind things, we would like to spread happiness and positivity with cute clothespins with fun messages on them.
I made two test sets at home with my niece, and they were a huge hit at school when I slipped them onto backpacks and hoodies.
My homeroom would like to have enough supplies to make a clip for each student in our school, we would like to spread happiness and positivity. Our school has approximately 1200 students, so this number of clips would allow us to create enough that each homeroom teacher will get a fun set to share with their students. These clips are painted using acrylic paint pens, and they have a message written in Sharpie. If we have extras, we will make them in school colors with a fun school expression, and we will tag people at sporting events.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
