My Project

These fifth graders are off to sixth grade which means they are not going to be elementary school students anymore they will be middle schoolers! Middle school is a whole new ball game and we are creating goodie bag to help them “survive”.

The items in this project will be used for goodie bags to celebrate their transition to middle school and the vinyl will be used to personalize the bottles for them to use in the future.

They will being promoted from fifth grade to sixth grade. In Hawai’i we use leis to celebrate and the fake leis will used to congratulate these kids on surviving and moving on to their next chapter.
