My students attend a public elementary school in Seattle. Almost every student in my school, Kindergarten through 5th grade (about 400) comes through my art class. Some of the students are just learning English and many of them are struggling academically, so I want to use art as an opportunity to help strengthen academic skills
They are excited to create art and love it when they can see a connection between art and literature or other subjects they are learning about in their regular classrooms.
