My Project

We would like to allow our students to earn weekly popcorn Fridays. It gives them a chance to socialize with other classes. We would also like to invite other grades to popcorn Fridays as well as local community members like police officers, bus drivers, firemen, etc. It gives our students a chance to earn a reward by working hard and to say thank you to our community, thank you for what they do.

Our SPED students help make the popcorn and deliver it to the classrooms.

They enjoy getting the opportunity to deliver it to the classrooms and visit with their classmates.

We would also be able to use the popcorn machine for special school events like school dance, track and field day, parent visits, etc. it’s a good way to bring the students together.
