The Class of 2037: Capturing Memories Of Childhood
Help me give my students a way to remember how amazing their pre-k year was: how much they enjoyed being with each other, how they blossomed into confident learners, and how much fun we all had together.

My Project
The group of pre-k students I taught this year are the most amazing students I have worked with in 27 years! Last year's group did better than any I had before them, but this year was just as incredible!
You've never seen a class who are so caring to each other.
The rush over to hug a student who comes in late. They comfort classmates who are upset. They help each other deal with their emotions with encouragement and friendship. I never hear them talk negatively about each other. They are incredibly generous with each other and are always willing to share. If I happen to reward one of them for a success or exemplary act, the others don't become upset that they didn't get something--they are happy for their friend!
I'm not looking for ways to help them learn--I want them to always remember their successes this year. I think it was a special experience, and these are students who don't have much of their own to treasure.
I would like to use an 8 x 10 photo frame for each student to display a collage of moments throughout the year, along with a class photo to remember their friends (almost none of them are able to purchase school picture packages).
In the autograph book, I am going to attach a photo of other students to each page. The child pictured will write their name, draw anything they would like, and dictate what they would like their friend to remember.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
