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
It's almost time for my fifth graders' biggest transition since kindergarten! They are preparing to leave the cozy nest of elementary school for the wide-open spaces of middle school. This can be a daunting and trying time for students, especially this year!
"All your dreams can come true if you have the courage to pursue them” – Walt Disney.
As my students enter this period of adjustment, we prepare for important changes not only academically, but also emotionally and socially. My kiddos have been working hard all year to attain their goals, recently they've been working on an end of year kindness rocks and essay project to gift to their peers on the last day of school. It is my goal to have an end of year celebration with graduation banners and inspirational messages where each and every student will be recognized for their individual talents and will receive an inspirational graduation gift bag filled with requested goodies (snacks, supplies, treats, key chains, bracelets, etc.) as they transition into middle school.
More than three‑quarters of 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
