My Project

Our 5th grade students are amazing creators! They are constantly thinking of new ways to demonstrate their learning through many different mediums.

Across the 5th grade at our school, we give students different experiences where they have the opportunity to experiment and convey information in various ways.

I am requesting Corrugated Cardboard Cutters, Colored Duct Tapes, Googly Wiggle Eyes, Pipe Cleaners and more! These everyday supplies allow us to offer our students different materials and the ability to show what they know in a way that resonates with them. This is done in the typical subjects, like reading and writing, but also in additional projects students create for STEAM challenges.
