Minute To Win It Again!

My students need a countdown clock, waist belts and slinkies to complete items needed for games to be played.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Teresa Marconi Miller's classroom raised $284

This project is fully funded

My Students

Our close-knit Title I school is located in a beautiful country setting. The students are energetic, curious and work hard. The parents are positive and the community is a great resource of support.

The students come to school each day to learn so that they can be a positive and helping participant in society.

The students work together to support one another both in the school and outside of the school day. Whenever a need arises in the community our students are always there to lend a helping hand. Therefore, when we can help to pay it forward to the students we jump at the opportunity.

My Project

The belts and slinkies will be used to play a minute to win it game called "Around and Around We Go." Students will place the belts around their waist, attach a slinky end and try to swing a disk on the slinky from one person and back to the start. Once all of our items were received we forgot a timer. A countdown timer big enough so that everyone in the audience can participate by counting down. This countdown clock is bright enough for all to see. The timer will be set for 1 minute and when it gets down to 10 seconds the audience can count along to let the players know that time is running out. Our after prom will benefit the students by providing them a safe environment of fun activites, prizes and games after their prom.
