Help me give my students fabric and other materials to create original stuffed animals!
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Graupera's classroom raised $260
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
The fifth graders have spoken. The time has come, once again, TO Unleash the Stuffies! This year our students will return to creating their own stuffed creature through the use of sewing and textile manipulation.
I have requested felt, polyester stuffing, yarn, glue sticks, and plastic sewing needles.
As well as being silly and fun, this project will help develop design-based problem solving skills as students transform their sketchbook drawing into colorful, three-dimensional, stitched and sewn creatures.
This project will also reinforce writing and speaking skills since each student will create a short presentation about their stuffed creature.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
