K-grams!
Swing Sessions

Sign up your Student Group to do a project with fun little kids at a local elementary school!! 

Student groups can now sign up to participate in a K-grams Swing Session, where they host fun and educational projects in Ann Arbor elementary school classrooms. Your student group can design and coordinate a classroom project for K-5 students. Project ideas range from teaching about U of M history to interactive mock elections to writing stories! You may also choose to do a project that incorporates your group's purpose or history. If you don't have an idea in mind, don't worry! We have plenty of people here who are eager to help you create a project that will be fun for everyone.
