My Project

Saying goodbye is so hard this year! I have known the majority of my students since they were in PreK. I have watched them grow into the wonderful young people they are today.

The journals, pens, and keychains will create memories they have made in elementary school, as they leave to embark on a new journey and a whole new world.

These items will become mementos they can look back on and remember what it was like in elementary school.

Creating good memories will help when students are facing challenges in their lives. I would like for my students to remember the lessons learned in elementary schools. When they feel like giving up, I would like them revisit the gifts they received and remember how they felt at that time. I want my students to always remember the safe and caring environment they had when they were in elementary school.
