Unique But Different

Help me give my students the ability to show and explain their family dynamic.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Felty's classroom raised $314

My Project

What I love about my students in kindergarten is that they make friends easily and often do not notice differences. I think it is important to allow students to notice that differences are a great thing and help make us who we are. The containers will hold our crayons to signify the beauty of things being different but coming together to unify everyone like the colors of the containers do. We will use the crayons and the tissue paper to illustrate and design our uniqueness in the projects.

My goal for this project is to allow students to creatively depict their family and friend dynamic.

I think this is important to my little learners to help them understand that differences are what make us special. I want students to be able to show each other something unique and special about them.
