  • Scholastic's "Unique Rules"

    Funded Aug 13, 2019

    Thank you so much for your support in our sewing adventure. I cannot tell you how much my students have loved this Ugly Doll project. Parents, teachers, and students alike have told me how much they love this project. Everyday, when I stand outside of my classroom in the mornings, I have at least one student tell me how excited they are to work on their ugly doll.

    At first, my third grade students were apprehensive about sewing. I heard a lot of, "You mean we're really going to sew?" "We're using real needles?" "We get to use the hot glue gun?" They were surprised that they were allowed to use such "big kid" tools. Many of them weren't confident in their potential as well. We broke the project down into manageable pieces. We began by designing our ugly doll. Then we had to cut our patterns and fabric. Afterwards, we practiced running stitch sewing and tying knots. This was slow moving, and many students worked extremely hard to master these simple sewing techniques. They were determined to create an ugly doll. Finally, we hot glued details, sewed our pattern, and stuffed our dolls with batting. For some it was not easy, but they were diligent. I am extremely proud of their dedication and hard work.

    Again, thank you for your contribution. You have helped create and sustain excitement, dedication, and determination in my art room.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Jenkins

  • Help Us Keep Our Art Work Safe!

    Funded Aug 22, 2018

    I am so incredibly excited to tell my students our project has been funded! Thank you for your selflessness and generosity. Your donations will truly make a world of difference in my art classroom! These reliable storage shelves will keep our precious creations safe and our classroom free from clutter!”

Unfortunately, storage can quickly become a big issue in the art classroom. With 480+/- students coming through per week, we accumulate A LOT of artwork. These adjustable storage shelves have the ability to change with our projects. If the 4th graders are building cardboard Roman columns while 2nd graders are learning oil pastel blending, it won't be a big deal! I will be able to adjust the size of the storage space according to the projects my students are creating. Durable, adjustable storage shelves will help keep our working areas free of clutter, while also helping us keep our artwork organized and safe.
