My Project

As a first year teacher, I am eager to have my students explore, express, and create different materials in our classroom art center.

Looking at and creating art nurtures a child's early critical thinking and helps them learn to creatively solve problems.

Given this opportunity students can use their fine motor skills to create, show, tell, and become more independent. I want my students to be proud of their artwork. These supplies can allow for my students to grow and overall enhance both their learning experiences and learning outcomes wholesomely!
