My Project

My students have been able to experience a whole new art program this year. We learn about a style of art, artist, or medium, and then students are able to choose how they want to explore. Colored permanent markers, chalk markers, and LEGO Bricks are some of the most used materials in my classroom. We are running low on the variety of colors of markers, we don't have any chalk markers left, and I want to make another bin of LEGO Bricks so that more students can experience them.

The artwork students have created with these materials has blown me away!

I know by adding these extra supplies and replenishing what we are out of will give them more opportunities to create amazing art. Watching my students express themselves through their creativity best part of being a teacher. Thank you for considering being a part of these students' creative journey!
