Mrs. Loch's Art Class from Virginia Beach VA is requesting materials related to food, clothing & hygiene through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Knock, Knock! Who's there?

Help me give my students a delicious, artistic holiday experience - gingerbread houses! We need grahm crackers for walls and roofs, and icing to hold everything together. The candies will be used to decorate these sweet treats.

My Project

I want to bring some holiday magic to my high school students. Making gingerbread houses is a delicious holiday tradition I want to share with them. This is not an experience the majority of them have ever had. We would like to have a contest too - to make the housemaking a competitive event.

I can hear the laughter and merry making in my room while they are busy assembling their gingerbread houses already.

This is one of those lessons that makes kids feel good about school and want to come back the next day.
