The Aspiring Artists

Funded Aug 29, 2019

thank you so much for sponsoring our project. Not only have you allowed my students the opportunity to explore their creativity but your sponsorship has "saved the day!" The students were thrilled when they found out we were finally getting new markers as well as clay which had never been used in the art room before. On the day the materials arrived they were eager and ecstatic to get the projects underway and explore the endless possibilities that were now coming true.

The students were able to "soar" to new heights with the markers and devise a plan to create the superhero of their dreams. This project entailed bold bright colors and an array of cultural inclusion. The students were able to create superhero logos that truly represented themselves.

The clay project allowed the students wildest imaginations to come to life by sketching and then creating an actual 3d model of what they had drawn. They thoroughly enjoyed feeling the clay in their hands and molding a creation of their own.

What's next for room 159 you ask, well the holidays are vastly approaching and we have a few tricks up our "sleeves", the students will have the opportunity to create a ugly holiday sweater amongst friends and peers ! So thank you for sparking the creativity of so many students with your contribution to our classroom, we deeply appreciate it and hope our creativity has inspired you too !”

With gratitude,

Ms. Ashlee
