My Project

Please help give my students prizes and materials to help celebrate their hard work academically and get ready for their middle school years!

They have mixed emotions about leaving elementary school, so we would love to help get them excited about middle school!

In order to do that, we want to celebrate their academic wins. We do this every year by letting students who made their academic goals silly string the teachers. We also want to give them a celebration at the end during their 5th grade promotion ceremony. We would love to be able to include a photo booth, which is why we are asking for a backdrop. We also would like to include the glow sticks and glasses to help make the ceremony more engaging.

Grades 3-5
