My Project

In the heart of our diverse classroom, we aim to celebrate cultural richness and ignite a love for learning. Our project encompasses three distinct elements: a vibrant Chinese New Year celebration, the introduction of Rick Riordan's "The Lightning Thief" series, and an engaging review game to delve into the mysteries of ancient civilizations.

This year, we aspire to bring the spirit of Chinese New Year to our students.

To create an immersive experience, we are requesting red envelopes and fortune cards. These symbols of good luck and prosperity hold deep cultural significance.By incorporating these elements into our classroom, we hope to instill an appreciation for diverse traditions and foster a sense of unity among our students.

In the realm of literature, we are excited to introduce our students to the enchanting world of Rick Riordan's "The Lightning Thief" series. This captivating series seamlessly weaves together Greek mythology, adventure, and humor, making it an ideal addition to our classroom library. Through these books, we aim to spark the imaginations of our students, encouraging them to explore mythical realms and embark on literary adventures.

To complement our exploration of ancient civilizations, we are seeking funds for an interactive review game. This game will serve as a dynamic tool to reinforce our students' understanding of historical concepts. As they engage in this hands-on activity, they will not only absorb key information about ancient civilizations but also develop critical thinking and teamwork skills.
