This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Project
At our school for the Deaf and Blind we want to help our students build character while connecting with nature. Painting Character rocks while learning about the character traits good students have will be a great way to learn and celebrate our amazing students. Our students have to work harder than others to overcome obstacles in listening and seeing. They work hard and we want to recognize them in a fun way.
Painting Character Rocks will be a creative way to learn about good character traits and connect us to nature.
We have an area near the front of the school where everyone passes each day to display the rocks. Planting seeds will also be a way to see how things grow just like our character traits can grow and develop. Celebrating our students while learning about the nature will be fun, hands-on, and creative activities for our students.
