This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Project
Many of my students learn through hands-on activities. We would like to teach crocheting, sculpture, LEGO building, origami, and many other hands-on activities at school.
Many of my students are kinesthetic learners and learn by performing a task.
The benefits of crocheting for kids are improving fine motor skills, boosting creativity, enhancing focus and concentration, building self-esteem and confidence, and developing patience and perseverance.
Not to mention learning to socialize and have fun in a productive way at school.
We need yarn, scissors, storage boxes, bags, LEGO kits, clay, and snacks to learn new skills.
