My Project

My students are extremely creative and crafty. They love to make things and use their hands. I am asking specifically for art supplies and fidgets. We use the art supplies to create and express ourselves. We use fidgets to keep our hands busy when we need to learn and can't create.

My goal for this project is to find alternative ways to keep my students engaged and interested in our content through the use of art supplies and fidgets.

My students are extremely special because of their creativity, imagination, and innovative ideas. My students also like to use their hands and stay busy!
