Collaborative Crafts in the High School Library!

Help me give my students fun activities to relax and work collaboratively. Around 100 students spend their lunch period in the school library. They love these projects and I'm in need of more supplies.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Wiltse's classroom raised $587

This project is fully funded

My Project

My high school has four lunch periods, and the library is a popular location for students during this time. An average of 25 students visit each lunch period, and to my surprise, the collaborative projects I have available have been very popular!

My students love working on puzzles, crafts, and other collaborative projects in the library.

Students have asked for Lego build kits, beads, and sticker mosaics for future lunch period collaborative projects. We know that high school can be stressful, and having these relaxing activities will be important for them during their day. This will help fulfill our school goal of improving student social-emotional health.
