My Project

This is our first year and we need supplies for all of our centers. I am highlighting the art center because it is one of the favorite centers in our classroom. Donations to this center open up the world of imagination, creativity, and SEL expression. These materials (Magic Board, Dough, and Dot Art Painters) will provide countless opportunities for children to explore and be creative. The art center is open space to explore feelings and express a child’s creativity and emotion. For our youngest learners art can express what their words are not yet ready to say. Our art center is where we are free to be who we are feeling through the gift of art.
