Giving my students a variety of art supplies to create projects that allow them to use their creativity and explore new supplies that have not been readily available in their daily art lives. Teaching students how to blend colors or cut out shapes to make a colorful or creative animal will give them a chance to see art in a new and advanced way. The vibrant colors these supplies bring will allow students to believe in things that they thought they could not possibly do. Giving my students the opportunities to use a different part of their brain in a traditional classroom through art will help build confidence, belief and expansion of their already creative minds. Sometimes giving students the opportunity to try new things, brings out a whole new confidence and belief in them! I want my students to believe they can create quality and stunning work no matter their talent or ability. I am excited to reach all student in my class with these supplies whether they physically challenged, lack eye-hand coordination, or don't believe in themselves as artist. Seeing success in what they can do as artist can bring out some amazing social confidence within my classroom.
