My Project

My students enjoy, exploring with our art activities which I create to provide numerous benefits for young children including cognitive development, creativity, and social emotional growth. At this time our current inventory of our supplies is insufficient to meet the diverse needs of my pre-K students. I am requesting crayons, easel pads, glitter paint, pads and other supplies that will be used to design a variety of experiences to cater to different learning styles and abilities. The supplies will support the implementation and comprehensive art curriculum aligned with early learning standards, ensuring that all my pre-K students have access to high-quality art Education. I am also requesting seat sacks and a bookshelf for storage of these supplies.

By investing in my classroom, you can make a huge impact on Pre-k Students lives.

Some impacts include increased opportunities for creative expression, enhanced fine motor skill development, improved engagement, motivation, learning, particularly for visual and kinesthetic learners, providing social-emotional development, collaboration, and self-confidence through collaborative art projects.
