My Project

For the end of the school year we look forward to fun learning!

Materials requested will assist in making these days even more exciting.

Pirate day, the room is transformed into a pirate ship, students must walk the plank. During math & reading we use pirate manipulatives for learning. This year we would like to provide each student with their own pirate hat & eye patch. We would also like to give each student fools gold & use the kit to learn about fools gold.

Mickey & Friends day, students will get to virtually ride the Disney World rides & play Disney trivia. To make this day more fun, we are requesting mouse ears for each student to wear on our adventure.

Flamingo day, we like to imagine we are learning from a tropical space. We are requesting decorations for our tropical learning!

Cowboy Day we will be using inflatable horses for spelling and math equation relays. We are also requesting a set of cowboy hats so that all students can dress up for this fun day.

Exercise day, students will participate in exercise time. To make this activity more fun, we are requesting a set of sweatbands for everyone.

This year, Dinosaur Day is new to our countdown days. The decorations & backdrop will help to set the tone of the classroom. The dinosaur masks will make learning about dinosaurs as dinosaurs so much fun! And the discovery fossil egg kits are a great way to learn about the different dinosaurs while becoming paleontologists.

Insect Day is also new, we are requesting an insect discovery kit with informational cards to uncover preserved insects. The insect masks will allow students to become insects while learning.

We don't just have a day filled with fun, all incorporate learning into each activity.
