My Project
I want my students to release their testing anxiety, anger, quietness, or frustration with life and school by relating DIYing to their standards-based lessons. Relax their minds in expressing their creativity and showing their intellectual side. Using these materials found within either a wood painting or clay modeling DIY kit, this will help with positive group collaboration, active student engagement, and extending one's skill set beyond the pages of a book or flat-screen of a computer or laptop. They will also use their hands in making three dimensional objects to relax and bring peace to their minds. Relax, Relate and Release any grows and glows exhibited in or outside the classroom to feel better on the inside and outside of self.
