Supplies for an Exciting 6th Grade Social Studies Class

Help me give my students clay, binders and Lincoln logs for an exciting social studies class.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Tuttle's classroom raised $952

This project is fully funded

My Students

Our 6th graders are creative, silly and wonderful young humans. They have been making it through all of the changes that COVID has brought to our school.

And yet, they are motivated, cheerful and curious to learn new things.

They deserve a great education

My Project

We will be using the clay for the students to create their own clay tablets to experience first hand what writing messages used to entail in historical times. The students will use the Lincoln logs to simulate survival in their beginning of year unit. The binders will help students keep all their materials organized and thus will help them be successful learners.

All of these items will help me create excitement for learning among my students and help them recover from the COVID-induced learning loss and isolation.

These hands-on projects will encourage students to socialize and work together with their classmates.

SS.6-8.EWC.22 is just one of the standards that this project will help address.
