My Students

I work in a Title I school in Brooklyn, NY teaching ART to grades PreK/K/1. I want to provide my students with an art education that will help them grow and succeed. We need the necessary tools and supplies to achieve success. Teaching ART helps students build self-esteem and open up their world. They become risk takers, use critical thinking and their imaginations. Skills learned through ART will help them in all subject areas. My students deserve to expand their capabilities with the necessary supplies.

My Project

With these donations my students will have the basic supplies they need to begin their artistic journey. They will also be able to use materials that foster creative thinking and expand their imaginations. We will study famous artists and use their pieces to inspire our own creativity. My young students will cut, color, glue, draw, paint and make their own pieces to cherish forever. I plan to use rheae materials to teach the basic elements of art as well as create projects. I'm planning on making my students fall in love with what art represents. Remember, without ART, the Earth is just "eh."
