My Students

"Every child is an artist." - Picasso. Our classroom needs a place to store our masterpieces. This drying center is compact and a perfect place to park all of our exploding creativity.

Our classroom revolves around exploring every subject through creativity.

If you walk into our room you may find us building writing books for the literature we create. We may be painting our own Starry Night celebrating Van Gough. We often create learning posters to take home and share with our families too. We are quite the creative motive group here!

My Project

Mrs. O's second graders would be very inspired to have a place to adequately organize and store their creative treasures. We take great pride in our work whether it be to build an interactive bulletin board in the hallway to share our learning with others, publish books we are so proud of, or study a famous artist and become inspired ourselves. Learning is creative and now we need to organize it!

This will make a huge impact greatly reducing missing or lost project pieces.

With a small classroom it is quite a blessing to have an exceptionally organized space for all our special projects.
