  • Model Magic Sculptures!

    Funded Aug 3, 2023

    Thank you so much for supporting our art classroom by providing us with some awesome supplies. My students had the best time working with the model magic provided by your donations. We created many things including awesome dragon eye sculptures and spiders inspired by Louise Bourgeois. One of our favorite things to do in the art room is work three-dimensionally and we really loved working with the model magic. Thanks again for your continued support of our art room. We really appreciate your donations and generosity.”

  • Paper for Drawing!

    Funded Aug 2, 2023

    Thank you so much for providing our classes with good quality paper for drawing! One of our students' favorite activities in the art room is when they have time to use the tracing table or free draw. They were very excited to have plenty of brand new paper for drawing. We also used it for some of our drawing projects from our curriculum. We created cartoon characters in four different styles, drew self-portraits and much more. Thanks again for helping to provide us with this resource. We really appreciate it!”

  • Classroom Organization and Rewards for Kind Acts!

    Funded Oct 17, 2023

    Thank you so much for your support. Classroom rewards have been a huge incentive for good class room behavior in the art room this year. My students have been loving earning tickets to cash in for rewards from our prize bin. They really love the erasers, stickers, bendy pencils and other goodies they can earn with their tickets. They get so excited when they earn enough to cash in. We really appreciate you funding this project for us in our art room. Thanks again for your support and generosity.”

    Thank you so much for donating towards our school beautification project. These materials will help my beautification club create a beautiful permanent display to brighten up their school community.

  • Document Cam Demonstrations

    Funded Aug 10, 2023

    Thank you SO MUCH for your donations towards this document camera. It has made teaching art techniques so much easier., especially with our large class sizes. Students are able to see my hands working up close on the smartboard and work along at the same time. This allows everyone to see at once without me having to travel to each table and work in small groups which can take a lot of time. I taught weaving to fifth graders using the document camera and had much more success this time than when I taught weaving last year. Thanks again for your support!”

  • Cardboard Looms for Weaving

    Funded Feb 4, 2024

    Thank you so much for funding this project for my students. Weaving was one of their favorite activities last year and they are excited to begin radial designs with weaving. Many of my students thrive with these kind of projects. Thank you again so much for your generosity and support.”

  • Paper for Printing Art!

    Funded Aug 2, 2023

    Thank you so much for providing us with this paper to print out digital work and templates for our projects. So far we have used the paper to print blank pumpkins for our fall display. Some students added patterns to make them decorative inspired by Yayoi Kusama. Other students chose to design them in a different way. We had all different character themed pumpkins as well. We will use the rest of the paper in the future after we complete our digital mosaics. Then I will print out the digital artwork for display in the building. Thank you again for your donation!”

I surveyed my classes during the first week of school to see what types of materials they would like to use and what projects they would like to create. Creating three dimensional sculptures from clay was the top answer and almost every student voted for clay as the material they'd like to use most this year. Many of them have not created a sculpture that they could dry, finish and keep. Your donation would allow my students access to a material they have not yet worked with and provide them with an opportunity to learn to create with a new medium.
