My Project

This year, my middle school learners are learning what it means to work hard, respect others, and create strong relationships. We've made progress, and I'd love to recognize that with a team-building activity.

My seventh-grade students have been working on learning and practicing vital 21st-century interpersonal skills, and I want to give them a memorable, real-life experience reading "how-to tie-dye" informational text and navigating this project with their peers.

This will be my third year creating tie-dye masterpieces with my students, and I know they will love this tie-dye activity! They enjoy hands-on activities, and always rise to the creative occasion. I know they will appreciate the chance to be artsy while collaborating with their peers. This will make a wonderful celebratory send-off to summer!
