My Project

Every year, on the 22nd of April, we celebrate Earth Day. Hello, I am an elementary teacher. I teach 1s -5th grade gifted students.

For this year's Earth Day project, we would like to beauty our school's courtyard by painting river rocks and displaying them by our rock pond.

Using outdoor paint, my gifted students will paint river rocks that will last for years. All of the students and staff in our school will be able to enjoy our beautification project. Our goal is for these colorful and inspiring rocks to bring a smile to others as they walk past the school's rock pond.
