My Project

I absolutely love the creativity and enthusiasm my students bring to the classroom every day. They are a vibrant and diverse group of learners who thrive when given the opportunity to express themselves through hands-on projects. What makes them special is their ability to think outside the box, collaborate with one another, and take pride in their work, even when resources are limited.

The supplies I am requesting—Crayola markers, Sharpies, colored pencils, rulers, and scissors—will make a significant difference in their learning experience.

These essential tools will enable my students to bring their ideas to life as they create visual projects, design prototypes, and complete hands-on activities that integrate art into their Family and Consumer Sciences (FCS) curriculum.

With these materials, students will be able to:

Add vibrant detail to their mood boards and design concepts.

Measure and cut precise patterns for textile and sewing projects.

Enhance their presentations with professional-looking visuals.

Develop fine motor skills and artistic confidence.

My goal for this project is to ensure that every student has access to the tools they need to succeed, regardless of their background. By providing these resources, I hope to inspire creativity, build confidence, and equip my students with skills that will serve them in both academic and real-world settings.

Thank you for supporting our classroom and helping my students unlock their creative potential!
