We Need Some Construction Paper In Art Class!
Funded Feb 5, 2013The construction paper couldn't have come at a better time, VALENTINES DAY! We needed colored paper for this fun holiday and were OUT! However, thanks to your generous donation we were able to make cards for the entire school out of beautiful reds, pinks and purple! Thank you so much for allowing my kids to have this beautiful colored paper. Normally we use white paper and color it with crayon or sometimes paint. Colored paper is a luxury here in the art room and with our new supply the kids are super excited! Thanks again elder!
Mahalo!”

Help We Need a Copy Machine for Art Class!
Funded Feb 5, 2013Can you believe that our color copy machine can the very next day! It was just like Christmas! It couldn't have come at a more perfect time with many students finishing up their projects they were all at different stages we used it the very same day! It is very difficult for my upper level students to have free time after completing their project so I usually like them draw or use origami books. However, we only have one book and sharing is very hard. What a perfect job for our copy machine. I was able to make multiple copies for 4 students all at the same time from the same book. What a life saver!

Artists Need Wiggle Eyes and Tape, Oh My!
Funded Feb 24, 2013Can you believe that our wiggly eyes and tape arrived Yesterday! Its amazing what you can do in art class with the correct supplies! Tape is an essential for all those oh uhs and accidents that we have its a real fast fix. Also, we can't get enough wiggly eyes. My lower level grades, 1st and 2nd, love to put them on EVERYTHING! I've also been asked by 3rd, 4th and 5th if they can use them too. Students just LOVE them, wouldn't you? Thanks again for making this possible we needed that extra pop, wiggly eyes, and tape for those occasional accidents. Mahalo!”

Basic Art Supplies Needed To Become Amazing Artists!
Funded Mar 1, 2013Can you believe that our staplers arrived just days after being funded? It was just in time to outline our Dr. Seuss Landscapes! Before, our drawing didn't have any life to them and were lacking the extra something. Now, the black markers allow my students to give their drawings decisions and that pop it was lacking! Here are some of the students in action! Also, we used the staplers the very first day when working with second grade. I colored coded them and made a spot on our supply tables that included a picture so they know where to put them when cleaning up! Thanks again for giving us the supplies to make these amazing art projects! Mahalo!”

We Need Some New Crayons To Be Amazing Artists!
Funded Feb 5, 2013Thank you so much for our new crayons. We use crayons everyday in Art class. The students love the fun colors and twist able effects. I love them because they have the crayon encased in a hard plastic shell that prevents the crayon on breaking. They also last 5 times longer than regular crayons because we are so careful with them! I can't thank you enough for your generous donation. These crayons will be the gift that keeps on giving which mean making artwork all year! We can't thank you enough!

Pretty Please, We Need Some Paper for Handouts and Drawing!
Funded Jan 21, 2013Thank you so much for your generous donation to our classroom! Your paper came JUST in time with only one package drawing paper was running extremely low! Now, we are able to draw and sketch our ideas and even provide nice handouts when we learn about new artists.
My kids LOVE the two sizes of drawing paper and it allows them to pick and choose how big or small they want their project to be!
I can't thank you enough for giving us this amazing opportunity to allow my students to draw! It is the gift that keeps on giving!”

Jump into the 21st Century with Digital iBooks Part Three
Funded Jan 2, 2013Thank you so much for allowing me to build our iPad library! We now have our books organized my grade level and lessons! My kids LOVED all the Chinese New Year apps and books. We even downloaded books for Valentines Day and our upcoming Dr. Seuss lesson. I was almost able to get the entire Dr. Seuess collection. The books and apps are prefect for all ages and I find that the kids love to interact with the touchscreen and the sound effects.
I can't thank you enough for bringing our art classroom up to date in the 21st century!
Mahahlo!

We Need More Glue Part Five!
Funded Dec 5, 2012WOW! I cant thank you enough how amazing your donation of glue has been to our classroom! We use it almost everyday and especially on Valentines day! Without your generous donations we would have never been able to glue our cards together!
Thank you so much for the glue. It has been so nice not worrying if students use a little extra than one dot not a lot. Instead, we sometimes use a frame to glue things together. Glue has been a huge issue for me since I hate waste and the students really appreciate it!

We Need To Laminate! (Part Five)
Funded Jan 1, 2013Thank you , thank you, thank you thank you! Without your donations we have not been able to laminate our materials that we received over break! I made posters, handouts, and even made you Art placemats to protect our tables from getting dirty. The laminating film is so great because instead of a poster or handout lasting days or months when laminated it can last years.
I can't thank you enough for your generous donations with all your help you have made our dream come true of laminating in our classroom. With the four rolls requested from this project I'm sure it will last months from now or well into next year.

We Need Some More Toner For The New School Year!
Funded Sep 19, 2012Can you believe that our toner arrived days after the project was funded? It is simply amazing!Now, we no longer to to print out in boring black and white but in beautiful color! Before, our handouts and artists examples were boring and never had the beautiful colors the artists attended. Now, we can have beautiful examples that my students can see original works of art the way they would in a museum. I can't thank you enough for allowing my students to see the world in color with our new amazing toner! Mahalo!”
