My Project

My students are very creative and they always think of creative ways to use different materials to carry out their classroom ideas. It is important that students are easily able to find the art materials that they need, our classroom materials need to be clearly organized and easily accessible to materials.

Storing our classroom supplies in clear bins and in shelves will make it easier for students to see and get the materials that they need.

This will help to create a productive learning environment for my students to create art.
