My Project

Our students will be doing two projects this semester based on their interests. The first project is all about learning more about music, learning about drums and making their own drums. They will need drums to practice on before they make their own products. Their final product will be making a drum, learning a song and performing for their families.

Our second project is all about building things for our school community.

Students will need to practice using toy tools before they are able to use real tools like a saw or drills. Our final product will be creating a large sensory wall that will be displayed in our school.
