Ms. Crooke's Dance Program

Help me give my students an exceptional year that they will remember forever!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Crooke's classroom raised $454

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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

I will be teaching dance for the second year to grades K-4! I am looking forward to a great and successful year! The following items on my donors list will ensure that my students will have a successful year.

The camera requested will help tremendously because it will help me and the students record what we learn in the classroom, reference back to it to retrograde, and critique anything we need to fix or clean up.

The speaker will help because I will be able to play music as we warm up, and as the students learn the choreography, they will be able to follow along with not only the counts but with the music.

The decorations will assist in making sure that the students will have a warm welcome when entering my class every day, along with giving them rewards for great work and behavior.
