Let the Eagles Soar with Amazing Prints!

Funded Sep 7, 2022

I can't thank you enough for all the art materials we received. For my students it was the first time ever doing a print with the printmaking technique. We spent some time talking about the history of this type of printing method, and once I showed them my examples they were so excited and eager to try on their own.

They first had to draft their idea on a white paper, then transfer the image into a thin foam plate. After completing those two steps, the fun part was going to start. They were so mesmerized by this technique, the smiles on their faces is priceless, they were so happy and satisfied at the end of each print.

I was able to try this with my bilingual 4th graders, and we did it right before the winter break. They had the chance to create beautiful Christmas cards to bring home to their families and friends. I can't wait to try this with my other classes.

Thank you again!!”

With gratitude,
