Miniature Master Plots Exploring Narrative through Diorama
Help me give my students immersive learning experiences through creative storytelling with
"Miniature Master plots."
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Hicks's classroom raised $529
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
The requested supplies like paint, markers, glue, scissors, craft sticks, cardstock paper, foil paper, buttons, feathers, pom-poms, kite string, and diorama boxes will make a profound difference in my students' learning by:
Unlocking imagination and creativity through hands-on crafting of miniature narrative scenes (dioramas).
Developing fine motor skills through cutting, gluing, and arranging small objects.
Enhancing storytelling abilities by visually representing literary scenes and characters.
Fostering critical thinking through selection of props and scenery to convey narrative meaning.
Building confidence in public speaking as students present their diorama stories to peers. These supplies will transform traditional reading comprehension into immersive, creative learning experiences. By funding this project, you will empower my students to become creative storytellers, confident learners, and imaginative thinkers, shaping their academic success and lifelong love of literature.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
