My Project

My class is running low on basic supplies for art and daily activities. We are in need of new markers, crayons, tape, glue, and other materials to continue doing weekly art lessons, and to bring color and creativity into each and every subject every day.

My students are very creative and love to cut, glue, tape, and color.

They are always busy making and doing. To foster this love of creating I am asking for supplies to replenish what we have gone through this year. I think that creativity and novelty in everyday lessons bring added student interest and lead to lessons that they will remember forever. My students agree. Their favorite lessons this year included building ships when studying explorers and making our fossil art when studying fossils. Art brings learning to life.
