Design, Create, Investigate!

Help me give my students an opportunity to build, create, and investigate, while developing SEL skills.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Murray's classroom raised $999

My Project

The materials I am requesting for my students will be used in our gifted classroom during Response to Intervention periods. With gifted students, often times they are excelling in their classes, so they don't need academic interventions in the same way as their peers. Instead, they need opportunities to investigate their passions and develop their Social/Emotional skills.

I envision my students telling stories with Lego creations, producing vision boards for their bright futures with poster boards, and designing their own t-shirts with the Cricut materials.

My gifted students will be able to work on skills like social and self awareness, self management, and decision making, all while building, creating, and investigating!
